We present a 2D shape recognition and classification method based on matching shape outlines. The correspondence between outlines (curves) is based on a notion of an alignment cur...

Matching and registration of shapes is a key issue in Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Medical Image Analysis. This paper presents a shape representation framework based ...
Statistical shape modeling is widely used for medical image segmentation and interpretation. The main problem in building a shape model is the construction of a pointwise correspon...

This paper proposes to use the Laplace-Beltrami spectrum (LBS) as a global shape descriptor for medical shape analysis, allowing for shape comparisons using minimal shape preproces...

Statistical shape models have been used widely as a basis for segmenting and interpreting images. A major drawback of the approach is the need to establish a set of dense correspo...
