A blind definition of shape

J. L. Lisani, J. M. Morel, L. Rudin (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this note, we propose a general definition of shape which is both compatible with the one proposed in phenomenology (gestaltism) and with a computer vision implementation. We reverse the usual order in Computer Vision. We do not define “shape recognition” as a task which requires a “model” pattern which is searched in all images of a certain kind. We give instead a “blind” definition of shapes relying only on invariance and repetition arguments. Given a set of images , we call shape...

Triangular mesh analysis with application on hip bone

Pajerová, Nikola, Linkeová, Ivana

Similarity:

Shape analyses and similarity measuring is a very often solved problem in computer graphics. The shape distribution approach based on shape functions is frequently used for this determination. The experience from a comparison of ball-bar standard triangular meshes was used to match hip bones triangular meshes. The aim is to find relation between similarity measures obtained by shape distributions approach.

Mesh Generation and Flexible Shape Comparisons for Bio-Molecules

Zhanheng Gao, Reihaneh Rostami, Xiaoli Pang, Zhicheng Fu, Zeyun Yu (2016)

Molecular Based Mathematical Biology

Similarity:

Novel approaches for generating and comparing flexible (non-rigid) molecular surface meshes are developed. The mesh-generating method is fast and memory-efficient. The resulting meshes are smooth and accurate, and possess high mesh quality. An isometric-invariant shape descriptor based on the Laplace- Beltrami operator is then explored for mesh comparing. The new shape descriptor is more powerful in discriminating different surface shapes but rely only on a small set of signature values....
