Embedded Profile Hidden Markov Models for Shape Analysis
An ideal shape model should be both invariant to global transformations and robust to local distortions. In this paper we present a new shape modeling framework that achieves both...

Projection onto a Shape Manifold for Image Segmentation with Prior
Image segmentation with shape priors has received a lot of attention over the past years. Most existing work focuses on a linearized shape space with small deformation modes aroun...

Towards Segmentation Based on a Shape Prior Manifold
Incorporating shape priors in image segmentation has become a key problem in computer vision. Most existing work is limited to a linearized shape space with small deformation modes...

Hierarchical Procrustes Matching for Shape Retrieval
We introduce Hierarchical Procrustes Matching (HPM), a segment-based shape matching algorithm which avoids problems associated with purely global or local methods and performs wel...

Alpha-shapes and flow shapes are homotopy equivalent
In this paper we establish a topological similarity between two apparently different shape constructors from a set of points. Shape constructors are geometric structures that tran...
