Enhanced 2D/3D Approaches Based on Relevance Index for 3D-Shape Retrieval
We present a new approach for 3D model indexing and retrieval using 2D/3D shape descriptors based on silhouettes or depth-buffer images. To take into account the dispersion of inf...

Selecting Distinctive 3D Shape Descriptors for Similarity Retrieval
Databases of 3D shapes have become widespread for a variety of applications, and a key research problem is searching these databases for similar shapes. This paper introduces a me...

Shape-Based Retrieval of Articulated 3D Models Using Spectral Embedding
Abstract. We present an approach for robust shape retrieval from databases containing articulated 3D shapes. We represent each shape by the eigenvectors of an appropriately define...

A Shape Distribution for Comparing 3D Models
This study developed a new shape-based 3D model descriptor based on the D2 shape descriptor developed by Osada, et al of Princeton University. Shape descriptors can be used to meas...

3D Model Retrieval Based on Depth Line Descriptor
In this paper, we propose a novel 2D/3D approach for 3D model matching and retrieving. Each model is represented by a set of depth lines which will be afterward transformed into s...

SHREC'08 entry: 3D shape searching using object partitioning
In this paper we propose a novel algorithm for 3D shape searching based on the visual similarity by cutting the object into sections. This method rectifies some of the shortcomin...

Shape analysis of brain ventricles for improved classification of Alzheimer's patients
One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the loss of neurons in the brain. In many cases, the medical experts use MR (magnetic resonance) images to qualitatively meas...

A New Descriptor for 2D Depth Image Indexing and 3D Model Retrieval
We present here a new descriptor for depth images adapted to 2D/3D model matching and retrieving. We propose a representation of a 3D model by 20 depth images rendered from the ve...

Shape Descriptors for Maximally Stable Extremal Regions
This paper introduces an affine invariant shape descriptor for maximally stable extremal regions (MSER). Affine invariant feature descriptors are normally computed by sampling the...
