This paper presents a novel Scalar-field based Free-Form Deformation (SFFD) technique founded upon general flow constraints and implicit functions. In contrast to the traditiona...
A framework for modeling and recognition of temporal activities is proposed. The modeling of sets of exemplar activities is achieved by parameterizing their representation in the ...
Abstract. The shape recognition of an object is important for dexterous manipulation by humans. Therefore, we have developed a haptic display that integrates both electrotactile an...

We consider restoring the bilateral symmetry of an object which has been deformed by compression. This problem arises in paleontology, where symmetric bones are compressed in the ...

We address the problem of finding deformation between two images for the purpose of recognizing objects. The challenge is that discriminative features are often transformation-va...
