Abstract
This chapter reviews several Riemannian metrics and evolution equations in the context of diffeomorphic shape analysis. After a short review of various approaches at building Riemannian spaces of shapes, with a special focus on the foundations of the large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping algorithm, the attention is turned to elastic metrics and to growth models that can be derived from it. In the latter context, a new class of metrics, involving the optimization of a growth tensor, is introduced, and some of its properties are studied.KeywordsRiemannian shape spacesShape analysisShape evolutionDiffeomeorphismsMorphoelasticityGrowth models
