Abstract. For medical image analysis issues where the domain mappings between images involve large geometrical shape changes, such as the cases of nonrigid motion recovery and inte...
Background: Owing to rapid expansion of protein structure databases in recent years, methods of structure comparison are becoming increasingly effective and important in revealing...
Statistical shape-and-texture appearance models employ image metamorphosis to form a rich, compact representation of object appearance. They achieve their efficiency by decomposin...
In this paper, we introduce a parallel numerical scheme, the lattice Boltzmann method, to shape modeling applications. The motivation of using this originally-designed fluid dyna...
When identifying a writer from a handwritten text, most often, either some characteristic patterns or some shape parameters are extracted. They are assumed to be specific of the w...
