The ASSM combines both statistical and structural a-priori knowledge aboutshape variation. The statistical a-priori knowledge models co-variations between two ormore parts of the shape structure (e.g. co-deformation, joint articulation). The struc-tural a-priori knowledge specifies which structural parts can be statistically related.The a-priori knowledge enables the ASSM to model a larger class of problems thanstructural or statistical models alone. Pure statistical models would have to use a com-plexdistributionfunctiontomodelshapesconsistingofarticulatedpartslikethehumanbody.
