Skeletons are often used as a framework for part-based shape description and matching. This paper describes some useful strategies that can be employed to improve the performance ...
—This paper presents an operational rate-distortion (ORD) optimal approach for skeleton-based boundary encoding. The boundary information is first decomposed into skeleton and di...

In this paper a method for estimating a rigid skeleton, including skinning weights, skeleton connectivity, and joint positions, given a sparse set of example poses is presented. I...
We propose a novel type of decomposition for polygonal shapes. It is thought that, for the task of object recognition, the human visual system uses a part-based representation. De...
