Geodesic curves in surfaces are not only minimizers of distance, but they are also the curves of zero geodesic (sideways) curvature. It turns out that this property makes patterns...

The shape of a population of geometric entities is characterized by both the common geometry of the population and the variability among instances. In the deformable model approach...

Abstract--We address the problem of computing a local orientation map in a digital image. We show that standard image gray level quantization causes a strong bias in the repartitio...
In this paper we revisit local feature detectors/descriptors developed for 2D images and extend them to the more general framework of scalar fields defined on 2D manifolds. We pro...

Principal curvatures and principal directions are fundamental local geometric properties. They are well deļ¬ned on smooth surfaces. However, due to the nature as higher order diļ...
