Assessing the similarity among 3D shapes is a challenging research topic, and effective shape descriptions have to be devised in order to support the matching process. There is a ...
We address document image classification by visual appearance. An image is represented by a variable-length list of visually salient features. A hierarchical Bayesian network is ...
Shape matrices have been used as a representation of planar shapes like industrial parts or printed characters. In this paper, we investigate the use of shape matrices as a mixed ...

This paper proposes a novel graph matching algorithm based on skeletons and applies it to shape recognition based on object silhouettes. The main idea is to match the critical poin...
Skeletons are often used as a framework for part-based shape description and matching. This paper describes some useful strategies that can be employed to improve the performance ...
