Contour grouping with shape manifold and distance transform
Object detection in clutter or occlusion is a hard problem in computer vision. We propose an object detection method based on contour grouping. Two stages are included: a novel di...

Grouping Contours Via a Related Image
Contours have been established in the biological and computer vision literature as a compact yet descriptive representation of object shape. While individual contours provide stru...

Shape Median Based on Symmetric Area Differences
Median averaging is a powerful averaging concept on sets of vector data in finite dimensions. A generalization of the median for shapes in the plane is introduced. The underlying ...

3D Reconstruction of Human Faces from Occluding Contours
Abstract. In this paper we take a fresh look at the problem of extracting shape from contours of human faces. We focus on two key questions: how can we robustly fit a 3D face mode...

An SL(2) Invariant Shape Median
Median averaging is a powerful averaging concept on sets of vector data in finite dimensions. A generalization of the median for shapes in the plane is introduced. The underlying ...
