Methods and an apparatus process images. The method according to one embodiment accesses digital image data representing a plurality of objects with a plurality of features; generates a shape model for shapes of the plurality of objects, the step of generating a shape model including generating a baseline object by aligning the plurality of objects, and determining deformation modes to describe shape deformations between shapes of the plurality of objects and the baseline object; performs shape registration for the plurality of objects by fitting shapes of the plurality of objects using combinations of the deformation modes, to obtain registered shapes; and generates a probabilistic atlas by mapping the plurality of features from the plurality of objects to the baseline object, using the registered shapes for the plurality of objects.
