Object classification often operates by making decisions based on the values of several shape properties measured from the image. This paper describes and tests several algorithms...
In this paper we present a novel shape descriptor based on shape context, which in combination with hierarchical distance based hashing is used for word and graphical pattern base...
Registration of an image, the query or reference, to a database of rotated and translated exemplars constitutes an important image retrieval and indexing application which arises i...

Human visual recognition is based largely on shape, yet effectively using shapes in natural image retrieval is a challenging task. Most existing methods are based on the geometric...
In this paper we present a method for the retrieval of images in terms of perceptual similarity. Local color information is added to the shape context descriptor in order to obtain...
