In this paper, we address the issue of extracting contour of the object with a specific shape. A hierarchical graphical model is proposed to represent shape variations. A complex ...
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes that damages the retina and leads to sight loss if treated late. In its earliest stage, DR can be diagnosed by microa...
Insect species recognition is a typical application of image categorization and object recognition. Unlike generic image categorization datasets (such as the Caltech 101 dataset) ...
In this paper we describe and analyze a method based on local least square fitting for estimating the normals at all sample points of a point cloud data (PCD) set, in the presenc...
New representations are developed for 2D IP (implicit polynomial) curves ofarbitrary degree. These representations permit shape recognition and pose estimation with essentially sin...
