Abstract. This paper presents a fast algorithm for robust registration of shapes implicitly represented by signed distance functions(SDF). The proposed algorithm aims to recover th...

We introduce a robust probabilistic approach to modeling shape contours based on a lowdimensional, nonlinear latent variable model. In contrast to existing techniques that use obj...
A new compound image compression algorithm is proposed, based on Shape Primitive Extraction and Coding (SPEC). The SPEC first segments a compound image into text/graphics pixels an...
Highly realistic virtual human models are rapidly becoming commonplace in computer graphics. These models, often represented by complex shape and requiring labor-intensive process...

Active Shape Models (ASM) have proven to be an effective approach for image segmentation. In some applications, however, the linear model of gray level appearance around a contour ...
