In this paper we study various chain codes, which are representations of binary image contours, in terms of their ability to compress in the best way the contour information using...
Trees and graphs are widely used to model biological databases. Providing efficient algorithms to support tree-based or graph-based querying is therefore an important issue. In th...
This paper presents a novel approach to the on-line signature verification using local shape Analysis. First, segment the input signature into several segments using HMM (Hidden M...
We present a novel approach, clustering on local image profiles, for statistically characterizing image intensity in object boundary regions. In deformable model segmentation, a d...

The problem of cosegmentation consists of segmenting the same object (or objects of the same class) in two or more distinct images. Recently a number of different models have been...
