We consider the problem of localizing the articulated and deformable shape of a walking person in a single view. We represent the non-rigid 2D body contour by a Bayesian graphical...
We describe in this paper a method for 3D shape indexing and retrieval that we apply on three data collections of the SHREC SHape Retrieval Contest 2008: Stability on watertight, ...

We present a shape representation and a matching method for nonrigid shapes with closed contours. The representation utilizes the areas of the triangles formed by the boundary poi...

Contours have been established in the biological and computer vision literature as a compact yet descriptive representation of object shape. While individual contours provide stru...
Abstract—Contour features play an important role in object recognition. Psychological experiments have shown that maximum-curvature points are most distinctive along a contour [6...
