This paper proposes a novel method for rapid and robust human detection and tracking based on the omega-shape features of people's head-shoulder parts. There are two modules ...
We address the problem of robust appearance-based visual tracking. First, a set of simplified biologically inspired features (SBIF) is proposed for object representation and the B...
Abstract. This paper investigates the use of a total least squares approach in a generalization of the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm for shape registration. A new General...
We present a new method for robustly decomposing a 3D voxel shape into disjoint segments using the medial surface, also called surface skeleton. The boundaries of the simplified ...
Abstract. Extrema of curvature are useful key points for different image analysis tasks. Indeed, polygonal approximation or arc decomposition methods used often these points to ini...
