In this paper, we propose a novel framework for contour based object detection. Compared to previous work, our contribution is three-fold. 1) A novel shape matching scheme suitabl...
We propose an automatic monitoring system which detects and tracks intruders, using a pan-tiltzoom camera. Detection is based on a background subtraction method which detects the ...
This paper presents a robust automatic shape classifier using modular wavelet networks (MWNs). A shape descriptor is constructed based on a combination of global geometric features...

The shape of a population of geometric entities is characterized by both the common geometry of the population and the variability among instances. In the deformable model approach...

Abstract. Deformable template models are valuable tools in medical image segmentation. Current methods elegantly incorporate global shape and appearance, but can not cope with loca...
