On Using Physical Analogies for Feature and Shape Extraction in Computer Vision
: There is a rich literature of approaches to image feature extraction in computer vision. Many sophisticated approaches exist for low- and high-level feature extraction but can be...

Shape Extraction Via Heat Flow Analogy
Abstract. In this paper, we introduce a novel evolution-based segmentation algorithm by using the heat flow analogy, to gain practical advantage. The proposed algorithm consists of...

Usefulness of Boundary Sequences in Computing Shape Features for Arbitrary Shaped Regions
A boundary sequence is a good representation of arbitrary shaped regions, but not directly used in computing shape features such as area, centroid, orientation, and so forth. In t...

Building Shape Models from Image Sequences using Piecewise Linear Approximation
A method of extracting, classifying and modelling non-rigid shapes from an image sequence is presented. Shapes are approximated by polygons where the number of sides is related to...

Water Flow Based Complex Feature Extraction
A new general framework for shape extraction is presented, based on the paradigm of water flow. The mechanism embodies the fluidity of water and hence can detect complex shapes. A ...
