This paper presents a geometric approach to recognizing smooth objects from their outlines. We define a signature function that associates feature vectors with objects and baseline...

Abstract. Statistical shape and texture appearance models are powerful image representations, but previously had been restricted to 2D or 3D shapes with smooth surfaces and lambert...

The approximation of surfaces to scattered data is an important problem encountered in a variety of scientific applications, such as reverse engineering, computer vision, computer...
In region machining, neighbouring regions may be close together, but disconnected. Boundary curves may also have unwanted geometric artifacts caused by approximation and discretis...
Energies of curves and surfaces together with their discrete variants play a prominent role as fairness functionals in geometric modeling and computer aided geometric design. This ...
