Object Detection by Contour Segment Networks
We propose a method for object detection in cluttered real images, given a single hand-drawn example as model. The image edges are partitioned into contour segments and organized i...

Generic Detection of Multi-Part Objects
A method is proposed to detect multi-part man-made or natural objects in complex images. It consists in first extracting simple curves and straight lines from the edge map. Then, ...

Contour grouping with shape manifold and distance transform
Object detection in clutter or occlusion is a hard problem in computer vision. We propose an object detection method based on contour grouping. Two stages are included: a novel di...

Statistical Shape Influence in Geodesic Active Contours
A novel method of incorporating shape information into the image segmentation process is presented. We introduce a representation for deformable shapes and define a probability di...

Object Detection Using Principal Contour Fragments
Abstract—Contour features play an important role in object recognition. Psychological experiments have shown that maximum-curvature points are most distinctive along a contour [6...
