Modeling and understanding complex non-manifold shapes is a key issue in shape analysis and retrieval. The topological structure of a non-manifold shape can be analyzed through its...
—We propose a novel scenario called “writer retrieval” consisting in the retrieval from a set of documents all those produced by the same writer. The retrieval is based on a ...
We propose a novel approach to shape-based image retrieval that builds upon a similarity criterion which is based on the average point set distance. Compared to traditional techni...
In this paper, we present a system capable of dynamically learning shapes in a way that also allows for the dynamic deletion of shapes already learned. It uses a self-balancing Bin...

A method that combines shape-based object recognition and image segmentation is proposed for shape retrieval from images. Given a shape prior represented in a multiscale curvature...
