How Folds Cut a Scene
We consider the interactions between edges and intensity distributions in semi-open image neighborhoods surrounding them. Locally this amounts to a kind of figure-ground problem, ...

Mereology of Visual Form
Visual forms come in countless varieties, from the simplicity of a sphere, to the geometric complexity of a face, to the fractal complexity of a rugged coast. These varieties have ...

A Rotation-Invariant Morphology for Shape Analysis of Anisotropic Objects and Structures
In this paper we propose a series of novel morphological operators that are anisotropic, and adapt themselves to the local orientation in the image. This new morphology is therefor...

Computational Surface Flattening: A Voxel-Based Approach
ÐA voxel-based method for flattening a surface in 3D space into 2D while best preserving distances is presented. Triangulation or polyhedral approximation of the voxel data are no...

Alignment-Based Recognition of Shape Outlines
We present a 2D shape recognition and classification method based on matching shape outlines. The correspondence between outlines (curves) is based on a notion of an alignment cur...

Straightening and Partitioning Shapes
A method for partitioning shapes is described based on a global convexity measure. Its advantages are that its global nature makes it robust to noise, and apart from the number of ...

Qualitative Estimation of Depth in Monocular Vision
Abstract. In this paper we propose two techniques to qualitatively estimate distance in monocular vision. Two kinds of approaches are described, the former based on texture analysi...
