Abstract. We propose an indexing technique for the fast retrieval of objects in 2D images based on similarity between their boundary shapes. Our technique is robust in the presence...
We consider the problem of finding the best match for a given query shape among candidate shapes stored in a shape base. This is central to a wide range of applications, such as, d...
We propose a novel approach to shape-based image retrieval that builds upon a similarity criterion which is based on the average point set distance. Compared to traditional techni...
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...
A large amount of 2D drawings have been produced in engineering fields. To reuse and share the available drawings efficiently, we propose two methods in this paper, namely 2.5D sp...
