This paper compares two methods for object localization from contours: shape context and chamfer matching of templates. In the light of our experiments, we suggest improvements to...

Wepresent a method for personal authentication based on deformable matching of hand shapes. Authentication systems are already employed in domains that require some sort of user v...
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...
We present a theoretical and computational framework for matching of two-dimensional articulated shapes. Assuming that articulations can be modeled as near-isometries, we show an a...

We propose the use of 3D (2D+time) Shape Context to recognize the spatial and temporal details inherent in human actions. We represent an action in a video sequence by a 3D point ...
