— A method is presented for non-rigid alignment of a source shape to a target shape through estimating and interpolating point-wise correspondences between their surfaces given a...
Abstract. We design an effective shape prior embedded human silhouettes extraction algorithm. Human silhouette extraction is found challenging because of articulated structures, po...
We address the problem of describing the mean object for a set of planar shapes in the case that the considered dissimilarity measures are semi-metrics, i.e. in the case that the t...
We present in this paper a novel approach for shape description based on kernel principal component analysis (KPCA). The strength of this method resides in the similarity (rotatio...
