Review of shape representation and description techniques

by Dengsheng Zhang, Guojun Lu , 2004
"... More and more images have been generated in digital form around the world. There is a growing interest in finding images in large collections or from remote databases. In order to nd an image, the image has to be described or represented by certain features. Shape is an important visual feature of a ..."

of an image. Searching for images using shape features has attracted much attention. There are many shape representation and description techniques in the literature. In this paper, we classify and review these important techniques. We examine implementation procedures for each technique and discuss its

Shape Representation and

by Image Segmentation Using, H Delingette, M Hebert, K Lkeuchi , 1992
"... this paper we propose an approach that attempts to solve this conflict by using the duality in a way similar to the approach. Several psychophysical experiments have proved that the hu- man eye is able to capture the main shape of an object by seeing only a few characteristic elements or features. ..."

Geometric structures for threedimensional shape representation

by Jean-daniel Boissonnat - ACM Trans. Graph , 1984
"... Different geometric structures are investigated in the context of discrete surface representation. It is shown that minimal representations (i.e., polyhedra) can be provided by a surface-based method using nearest neighbors structures or by a volume-based method using the Delaunay triangulation. Bot ..."

Qualitative Shape Representation

by Christoph Schlieder - IN , 1994
"... Boundaries are closely related to shape and it is in the context of shape representation that the problem of undetermined boundaries appears in spatial reasoning. Shape indeterminacy may occur at different levels of abstraction, namely at the topological and the geometrical level. It shows that ther ..."

Shape representation by metric interpolation

by Yonathan Aflalo, Ron Kimmel
"... Abstract—Coordinates of vertices in a triangulated surface can be efficiently represented as a set of coefficients that multiply a given basis of functions. One such natural orthonormal basis is provided by the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a given shape. The coefficients in thi ..."

in this case are nothing but the result of the scalar inner product of the coordinates treated as a smooth function on the surface of the shape and the eigenfunctions that form the orthonormal basis. Keeping only the significant coefficients allows for efficient representation of a given shape under practical

Planar Shape Representation Based on

by Multiwavelets Fernando Prez, O Pérez Nava, Antonio Falcón Martel
"... A technique is presented to construct a multiscale representation of planar contours based on the multiwavelet transform (MWT). To generate this multiwavelet description, a partial 1-D discrete multiwavelet transform (DMWT) is applied to the vertical and horizontal components of a length-parametrize ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
objects are well represented by a small number of multiwavelet coefficients allowing for a compact object shape representation.

Shape representations and evolution schemes

by Marc Schoenauer - Proceedings of the 5th Annual Conference on Evolutionary Programming , 1996
"... The choice of a representation i.e. the definition of the search space, is of vital importance in all Evolutionary Optimization processes. In the context of Topological Optimum Design in Structural Mechanics, this paper investigates possible representations for evolutionary shape design. ..."

Modeling the Shape of the Scene: A Holistic Representation of the Spatial Envelope

by Aude Oliva, Antonio Torralba - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2001
"... In this paper, we propose a computational model of the recognition of real world scenes that bypasses the segmentation and the processing of individual objects or regions. The procedure is based on a very low dimensional representation of the scene, that we term the Spatial Envelope. We propose a se ..."

Detailed shape representation with parallax mapping

by Tomomichi Kaneko, Toshiyuki Takahei, Masahiko Inami, Naoki Kawakami, Yasuyuki Yanagida, Taro Maeda, Susumu Tachi - In Proceedings of the ICAT 2001 , 2001
"... Although texture mapping is a common technique for adding apparent surface detail to 3-D objects, it lacks the capability to represent the motion parallax effect. So the mesh to which it is applied limits its realism. In this paper, we propose Parallax Mapping, a simple method to motion parallax eff ..."
