We present a new algorithm for simplifying the shape of 3D objects by manipulating their medial axis transform (MAT). From an unorganized set of boundary points, our algorithm com...
Skeletons are important shape descriptors in object representation and recognition. Typically, skeletons of volumetric models are computed using iterative thinning. However, tradi...
This paper proposes a novel feature-based invariant descriptor termed Radon composite features (RCFs) for planar shapes. Instead of analyzing shapes directly in the spatial domain,...
The complexity of human detection increases significantly with a growing density of humans populating a scene. This paper presents a Bayesian detection framework using shape and m...
We present an object-space morphing technique that blends the interiors of given two- or three-dimensional shapes rather than their boundaries. The morph is rigid in the sense tha...
