A new method termed the vertex representation is presented for approximating the shapes of objects of arbitrary dimensionality d (e.g., 20, 30, etc.) with orthogonal (d - 1)-dimen...
We have proposed a novel model-based compression technique for nonstationary landmark shape data extracted from video sequences. The main goal is to develop a technique for the co...
Recognition of shapes in images is an important problem in computer vision with application in various medical problems, including robotic surgery and cell analysis. The similarit...
This paper presents a unified approach to colour image coding, content-based indexing, and retrieval for database applications. The binary space partitioning (BSP) tree, tradition...
Diffuse interreflections mean that surface shading and shape are related in ways that are difficult to untangle; in particular, distant and invisible surfaces may affect the shadi...
