search the net for "active shape models" (especially for Tim Cootes'
publications) and study

Even better, google for active contour models and active surface
models. Cootes work is a region-based pattern matching approach only
loosely tied to the contour-based snake model. For a nice introduction
into active contour models, read Ivins' introductory paper "Everything
you ever wanted to know about Snakes, but were too afraid to ask". It
can be found on his site: http://www.computing.edu.au/~jim/snakes.html
