Databases of 3D shapes have become widespread for a variety of applications, and a key research problem is searching these databases for similar shapes. This paper introduces a me...
Variation in object shape is an important visual cue for deformable object recognition and classification. In this paper, we present an approach to model gradual changes in the ?-...
We present an object recognition system that locates an object, identifies its parts, and segments out its contours. A key distinction of our approach is that we use long, salien...
We present a new variational level-set-based segmentation
formulation that uses both shape and intensity prior information
learned from a training set. By applying Bayes’
rule...
The Gauss map projects surface normals to a unit sphere, providing a powerful visualization of the geometry of a graphical object. It can be used to predict visual events caused b...
