We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
The joint tasks of object recognition and object segmentation from a single image are complex in their requirement of not only correct classification, but also deciding exactly whi...
—We study the problem of approximating a 3D solid with a union of overlapping spheres. In comparison with a stateof-the-art approach, our method offers more than an order of magn...
This paper presents a new deformable modeling strategy aimed at integrating shape and appearance in a unified space. If we think traditional deformable models as "active cont...
—One of the basic challenges to robust iris recognition is iris segmentation. This paper proposes the use of a feature saliency algorithm and an artificial neural network to perf...
