This paper introduces a new method for shape registration by matching vector distance functions. The vector distance function representation is more flexible than the conventional...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
We present a framework for computing optimal transformations, aligning one point set to another, in the presence of outliers. Example applications include shape matching and regis...
In previous work on point matching, a set of points is often treated as an instance of a joint distribution to exploit global relationships in the point set. For nonrigid shapes, h...
Multiagent coordination algorithms provide unique insights into the challenging problem of alleviating traffic congestion. What is particularly interesting in this class of proble...
