This paper presents a new framework for shape modeling and analysis. A shape instance is described by a curvature-based shape descriptor. A Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) is ...
An ideal shape model should be both invariant to global transformations and robust to local distortions. In this paper we present a new shape modeling framework that achieves both...
In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
Matching and registration of shapes is a key issue in Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Medical Image Analysis. This paper presents a shape representation framework based ...
Hidden Markov Models are a widely used generative model for analysing sequence data. A variant, Profile Hidden Markov Models are a special case used in Bioinformatics to represent,...
