The problem of 3D shape matching is typically restricted to static objects to classify similarity for shape retrieval. In this paper we consider 3D shape matching in temporal sequ...
— Shape is one of the useful information for object detection. The human visual system can often recognize objects based on the 2-D outline shape alone. In this paper, we address...
Shape matching plays a prominent role in the analysis of medical and biological structures. Recently, a unifying framework was introduced for shape matching that uses mixture-model...
Skeletal representations of 2-D shape, including shock graphs, have become increasingly popular for shape matching and object recognition. However, it is well known that skeletal ...

Local shape descriptors compactly characterize regions of a surface, and have been applied to tasks in visualization, shape matching, and analysis. Classically, curvature has be us...

This paper presents a novel method for efficient boundary based shapes matching and retrieval in presence of occlusion. In this method, the geometric and topological information o...
In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
Abstract. We introduce a shape detection framework called Contour Context Selection for detecting objects in cluttered images using only one exemplar. Shape based detection is inva...
So far global optimization techniques have been developed independently for the tasks of shape matching and image segmentation. In this paper we show that both tasks can in fact b...
