The ball-and-socket joint model is used to represent articulations with three rotational degrees of freedom (DOF), such as the human shoulder and the hip. The goal of this paper i...
In this work, we present intrinsic shape context (ISC) descriptors for 3D shapes. We generalize to surfaces the polar sampling of the image domain used in shape contexts: for this...

This paper proposes a method for detecting object classes that exhibit variable shape structure in heavily cluttered images. The term "variable shape structure" is used t...

The shapes occurring in the images are important in the content-based image retrieval. In this paper we introduce a new Fourier-based descriptor for the characterization of the sh...
In this paper we propose a new approach to shape recognition based on the wavelet transform modulus maxima. And apply it to the problem of content-based indexing and retrieval of ...
