We describe some techniques that can be used to represent and detect deformable shapes in images. The main difficulty with deformable template models is the very large or infinite...
Nonlinear deformations in fingerprint images, arising from the elasticity of the skin as well as the pressure and movement of the finger during image acquisition, lead to diffi...
This paper presents a technique to enable deformable objects to be matched throughout video sequences based on the information provided by the multi-scale local histograms of the i...
The performance of a fingerprint matching system is affected by the nonlinear deformation introduced in the fingerprint impression during image acquisition. This nonlinear deformat...
—We propose a combinatorial solution to determine the optimal elastic matching of a deformable template to an image. The central idea is to cast the optimal matching of each temp...
