Structure-oriented contour representation and matching for engineering shapes
Conventional shape matching for engineering models primarily considers rigid shape similarity. They do not seek global shape similarity while considering large local deformations....

Linear and nonlinear generative probabilistic class models for shape contours
We introduce a robust probabilistic approach to modeling shape contours based on a lowdimensional, nonlinear latent variable model. In contrast to existing techniques that use obj...

Shape Representation and Classification Using the Poisson Equation
Silhouettes contain rich information about the shape of objects that can be used for recognition and classification. We present a novel approach that allows us to reliably compute...

Extracting Object Contours with the Sweep of a Robotic Whisker Using Torque Information
Several recent studies have investigated the problem of object feature extraction with artificial whiskers. Many of these studies have used an approach in which the whisker is rot...
