Skeletons are often used as a framework for part-based shape description and matching. This paper describes some useful strategies that can be employed to improve the performance ...
We consider the problem of finding the best match for a given query shape among candidate shapes stored in a shape base. This is central to a wide range of applications, such as, d...
This paper presents a shape representation and a variational framework for the construction of diffeomorphisms that establish "meaningful" correspondences between images...
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...
