Curvature of n-dimensional space curves in grey-value images
Local curvature represents an important shape parameter of space curves which are well described by differential geometry. We have developed an estimator for local curvature of spa...

Log-aesthetic space curve segments
For designing aesthetic surfaces, such as the car bodies, it is very important to use aesthetic curves as characteristic lines. In such curves, the curvature should be monotonical...

2D Affine-Invariant Contour Matching Using B-Spline Model
—This paper presents a new affine-invariant matching algorithm based on B-Spline modeling, which solves the problem of the nonuniqueness of B-Spline in curve matching. This metho...

The Variational Origin of Motion by Gaussian Curvature
A variational formulation of an image analysis problem has the nice feature that it is often easier to predict the eect of minimizing a certain energy functional than to interpret...

Degree Reduction for NURBS Symbolic Computation on Curves
Symbolic computation of NURBS plays an important role in many areas of NURBS-based geometric computation and design. However, any nontrivial symbolic computation, especially when ...
