Abstract. This paper presents a novel and efficient method for locating deformable shapes in cluttered scenes. The shapes to be detected may undergo arbitrary translational and rot...
Abstract. We match shapes, even under severe deformations, via a smooth reparametrization of their integral invariant signatures. These robust signatures and correspondences are th...

For shapes represented as closed planar contours, we introduce a class of functionals which are invariant with respect to the Euclidean group and which are obtained by performing i...

Object recognition and content-based image retrieval systems rely heavily on the accurate and efficient identification of shapes. A fundamental requirement in the shape analysis p...

We describe a new invariant-based data model for image databases under our approach for shape-based retrieval. The data model relies on contours description of the image shape, an...
