Abstract--Path openings and closings are morphological operations with flexible line segments as structuring elements. These line segments have the ability to adapt to local image ...
A linkage is a collection of line segments, called bars, possibly joined at their ends, called joints. Straightening a tree linkage is a continuous motion of their bars from an ini...
In several image applications, it is necessary to retrieve specific line segments born a potentially very large set. In this paper, we consider the problem of indexing straight li...
This paper proposes a new approach to describe the salient contours in cluttered scenes. No need to do the preprocessing, such as edge detection, we directly use a set of random s...
