When comparing 2D shapes, a key issue is their normalization. Translation and scale are easily taken care of by removing the mean and normalizing the energy. However, defining and...
This paper uses a recently introduced manifold kernel regression technique to explore the relationship between facial shape and attractiveness on a heterogeneous dataset of over t...
—Keypoints on 3D surfaces are points that can be extracted repeatably over a wide range of 3D imaging conditions. They are used in many 3D shape processing applications; for exam...
In this paper we develop a theory for characterizing how deformable a shape is given a sequence of its observations. We define a term called ‘‘deformability index’’ (DI) ...
The process of finding representative shape patterns from sparse datasets is a challenging task: especially for non-rigid objects, shape deformations through time can produce very...
