We propose a shape population metric that reflects the interdependencies between points observed in a set of examples. It provides a notion of topology for shape and appearance m...
We present an algorithm to identify the flat and tubular regions of a three dimensional shape from its point sample. We consider the distance function to the input point cloud an...
In the context of shape and image modeling by manifold learning, we focus on the problem of denoising. A set of shapes or images being known through given samples, we capture its s...
Image patches are fundamental elements for object modeling and recognition. However, there has not been a panoramic study of the structures of the whole ensemble of natural image ...
The concept of the Logarithm of the Odds (LogOdds) is frequently used in areas such as artificial neural networks, economics, and biology. Here, we utilize LogOdds for a shape repr...
