We propose an Isometric Self-Organizing Map (ISOSOM) method for nonlinear dimensionality reduction, which integrates a Self-Organizing Map model and an ISOMAP dimension reduction ...
We address the 3D object retrieval problem using multivariate density-based shape descriptors. Considering the fusion of first and second order local surface information, we cons...
Orthognathic surgery corrects a wide range of minor and major facial and jaw irregularities. This surgery will improve the patients’ ability to chew, speak and breathe. In many ...
This paper advises the use of k-dimensional size functions for comparison and retrieval in the context of multidimensional shapes, where by shape we mean something in two or highe...
In this paper we propose a new approach to shape recognition based on the wavelet transform modulus maxima. And apply it to the problem of content-based indexing and retrieval of ...
