The approximation of surfaces to scattered data is an important problem encountered in a variety of scientific applications, such as reverse engineering, computer vision, computer...
This paper describes e cient and optimal encoding and representation of object contours. Contours are approximated by connected second-order spline segments, each de ned by three ...

DIn this paper 1 , we propose a shape-based variational framework to curve evolution for the segmentation of tongue contours from MRI mid-sagittal images. In particular, we first...
Image and geometry processing applications estimate the local geometry of objects using information localized at points. They usually consider information about the tangents as a s...
Several computer vision problems, like segmentation, tracking and shape modeling, are increasingly being solved using level set methodologies. But the critical issues of stability...
