A novel shape descriptor, which can be extracted from the major object edges automatically and used for the multimedia content-based retrieval in multimedia databases, is presented...
This paper presents a method for identifying image loci that can be used as a basis for object segmentation and image registration. The focus is on 1D and 2D shape loci in 3D image...
Traditional Shape-from-Shading (SFS) techniques aim to solve an under-constrained problem: estimating depth map from one single image. The results are usually brittle from real im...
Abstract. Klassen et al. [9] recently developed a theoretical formulation to model shape dissimilarities by means of geodesics on appropriate spaces. They used the local geometry o...
This paper describes a method to identify partially occluded shapes which are randomly oriented in 3D space. The goal is to match the object contour present in an image with an ob...
