Many classification algorithms use the concept of distance or similarity between patterns. Previous work has shown that it is advantageous to optimize general Euclidean distances (...
The distance transform (DT) and the medial axis transform (MAT) are two image computation tools used to extract the information about the shape and the position of the foreground ...
Abstract--A new generic scheme for incremental implementations of distance transforms (DT) is presented: Incremental Distance Transforms (IDT). This scheme is applied on the citybl...
The Euclidean skeleton is essential for general shape representation. This paper provides an e cient method to extract a well-connected Euclidean skeleton by a neighbor bisector d...
