We describe some techniques that can be used to represent and detect deformable shapes in images. The main difficulty with deformable template models is the very large or infinite...
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for contour based object detection. Compared to previous work, our contribution is three-fold. 1) A novel shape matching scheme suitabl...
We describe a new hierarchical representation for twodimensional objects that captures shape information at multiple levels of resolution. This representation is based on a hierar...
Abstract. This paper presents a novel and efficient method for locating deformable shapes in cluttered scenes. The shapes to be detected may undergo arbitrary translational and rot...
We present a shape deformation approach which preserves volume, prevents self-intersections and allows for exact control of the deformation impact. The volume preservation and prev...
