An energy-driven approach to linkage unfolding
We present a new algorithm for unfolding planar polygonal linkages without self-intersection based on following the gradient flow of a “repulsive” energy function. This algor...

Contour Retrieval and Matching by Affine Invariant Fourier Descriptors
In the image plane, a 3 Dimensional movement of planar rigid object can be represented satisfactory by an affine motion of his boundary (the exterior contour) which we assume to b...

Gesture Analysis: Invariant Laws in Movement
This paper presents gesture analysis under the scope of motor control theory. Following the motor program view, some studies have revealed a number of invariant features that chara...
