This paper presents an image retrieval method based on region shape similarity. In our approach, we first segment images into primitive regions and then combine some of the primit...
A near-planar object seen from different viewpoints results in differently deformed images. Under some assumptions, viewpoint changes can be modeled by affine transformations. Sh...
Retrieval of similar heart sounds from a sound database has applications in physician training, diagnostic screening, and decision support. In this paper, we exploit a visual rende...
Abstract. We propose an indexing technique for the fast retrieval of objects in 2D images based on similarity between their boundary shapes. Our technique is robust in the presence...
