We construct a multi-scale model of shape of surfaces in 3D space based on the heat kernel associated with the Laplace-Beltrami operator. The model is applied to the analysis of longitudinal neuroimaging data collected by the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative. We use measures of shape deformation energy to quantify, compare and create maps of regional changes in hippocampal shape in normal aging, progression of Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment over a one-year period.
