Shape analysis requires invariance under translation, scale and rotation. Translation and scale invariance can be realized by normalizing shape vectors with respect to their mean ...
Many techniques of knowledge-based segmentation consist of building statistical models that describe the deformations of the structure of interest, and then fit these models to t...

We develop a new model-based extraction process guided by biomechanical analysis for walking people, and analyse its data for recognition capability. Hierarchies of shape and moti...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
?We describe a new method of matching statistical models of appearance to images. A set of model parameters control modes of shape and gray-level variation learned from a training ...
