This paper proposes a novel graph matching algorithm based on skeletons and applies it to shape recognition based on object silhouettes. The main idea is to match the critical poin...
The concept of elongation is generally well understood. However, there is no clear, precise, mathematical definition of elongation in any dictionary we could find. We propose that ...
We present a shape matching algorithm based on the chamfer distance transform which can be easily integrated into the well-known SIFT framework. The shape matching was designed to...
Local Gabor features (jets) have been widely used in face recognition systems. Once the sets of jets have been extracted from the two faces to be compared, a proper measure of simi...
This paper presents a novel approach for detection and segmentation of generic shapes in cluttered images. The underlying assumption is that generic objects that are man made, fre...
