In order to analyze shapes of continuous curves in R3 , we parameterize them by arc-length and represent them as curves on a unit two-sphere. We identify the subset denoting the cl...
We employ 3D arrangements of curves to represent and analyze biological shapes, in particular, the anatomy of the human brain. The arrangements of curves may vary from fairly spar...

In this paper we explore the use of shapes of noses for
performing partial human biometrics. The basic idea is to
represent nasal surfaces using indexed collections of isocurves,...

A novel scheme for the detection of object boundaries is presented. The technique is based on active contours evolving in time according to intrinsic geometric measures of the imag...
The general problem of surface matching is taken up in this study. The process described in this work hinges on a geodesic distance equation for a family of surfaces embedded in t...
