Robust Point Matching for Two-Dimensional Nonrigid Shapes
Recently, nonrigid shape matching has received more and more attention. For nonrigid shapes, most neighboring points cannot move independently under deformation due to physical co...

Bayesian Body Localization Using Mixture of Nonlinear Shape Models
We present a 2D model-based approach to localizing human body in images viewed from arbitrary and unknown angles. The central component is a statistical shape representation of th...

A Unifying Approach to Hard and Probabilistic Clustering
We derive the clustering problem from first principles showing that the goal of achieving a probabilistic, or ”hard”, multi class clustering result is equivalent to the algeb...

Conformal Metrics and True "Gradient Flows" for Curves
We wish to endow the manifold M of smooth curves in lRn with a Riemannian metric that allows us to treat continuous morphs (homotopies) between two curves c0 and c1 as trajectorie...
