Multi-stage Contour Based Detection of Deformable Objects
We present an efficient multi stage approach to detection of deformable objects in real, cluttered images given a single or few hand drawn examples as models. The method handles de...

Symmetry axis extraction by a neural network
This paper proposes a neural network model that extracts axes of symmetry from visual patterns. The input patterns can be line drawings, plane figures or gray-scaled natural image...

Planning for Steerable Bevel-tip Needle Insertion Through 2D Soft Tissue with Obstacles
— We explore motion planning for a new class of highly flexible bevel-tip medical needles that can be steered to previously unreachable targets in soft tissue. Planning for thes...

Wavelet, active basis, and shape script: a tour in the sparse land
Sparse coding is a key principle that underlies wavelet representation of natural images. In this paper, we explain that the effort of seeking a common wavelet sparse coding of i...
