A Study of Shape Similarity for Temporal Surface Sequences of People
The problem of 3D shape matching is typically restricted to static objects to classify similarity for shape retrieval. In this paper we consider 3D shape matching in temporal sequ...

Graph-based robust shape matching for robotic application
— Shape is one of the useful information for object detection. The human visual system can often recognize objects based on the 2-D outline shape alone. In this paper, we address...

A New Closed-Form Information Metric for Shape Analysis
Shape matching plays a prominent role in the analysis of medical and biological structures. Recently, a unifying framework was introduced for shape matching that uses mixture-model...

Canonical Skeletons for Shape Matching
Skeletal representations of 2-D shape, including shock graphs, have become increasingly popular for shape matching and object recognition. However, it is well known that skeletal ...

A Profile Hidden Markov Model Framework for Modeling and Analysis of Shape
In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...

Contour Context Selection for Object Detection: A Set-to-Set Contour Matching Approach
Abstract. We introduce a shape detection framework called Contour Context Selection for detecting objects in cluttered images using only one exemplar. Shape based detection is inva...

Globally Optimal Image Segmentation with an Elastic Shape Prior
So far global optimization techniques have been developed independently for the tasks of shape matching and image segmentation. In this paper we show that both tasks can in fact b...
