One of the main objectives of face recognition is to determine whether an acquired face belongs to a reference database and to subsequently identify the corresponding individual. F...
In this paper we introduce a novel Riemannian framework for shape analysis of parameterized surfaces. We derive a distance function between any two surfaces that is invariant to r...

We consider the use of medial surfaces to represent symmetries of cts. This allows for a qualitative abstraction based on a directed acyclic graph of components and also a degree o...

We present a novel method for interactive retrieval of 3D shapes using physical objects. Our method is based on simple physical 3D interaction with a set of tangible blocks. As th...
The ability of recognizing object categories in 3D data is still an underdeveloped topic. This paper investigates on adopting Implicit Shape Models (ISMs) for 3D categorization, th...
