This paper proposes a novel method to text-independent writer identification from online handwriting. The main contributions of our method include two parts: shape primitive repre...
Graph cut image segmentation with intensity information alone is prone to fail for objects with weak edges, in clutter, or under occlusion. Existing methods to incorporate shape a...
This paper reports a document retrieval technique that retrieves machine-printed Latin-based document images through word shape coding. Adopting the idea of image annotation, a wo...
Global shape information is an effective top-down complement
to bottom-up figure-ground segmentation as well
as a useful constraint to avoid drift during adaptive tracking.
We p...
