A Hierarchical Method of Recognizing Plant Species by Leaf Shapes
In order to recognize plant species from their shapes, shapes of contours of leaves can be used. However, contours of leaves are complicated and have variations. In order to deal ...

Incorporating Shape Features in an Appearance-Based Object Detection System
Most object detection techniques discussed in the literature are based solely on texture-based features that capture the global or local appearance of an object. While results indi...

Optimal radial contour tracking by dynamic programming
A common problem in most active contour methods is that the recursive searching scheme can only return a local optimal solution. Furthermore, the internal energy of the snake is n...

Shape Guided Contour Grouping with Particle Filters
We propose a novel framework for contour based object detection and recognition, which we formulate as a joint contour fragment grouping and labeling problem. For a given set of...

Object contour tracking using graph cuts based active contours
In this paper, we present an object contour tracking approach using graph cuts based active contours (GCBAC). Our proposed algorithm does not need any a priori global shape model,...
