Partitioned iterated function systems with division and a fractal dependence graph in recognition of 2D shapes

Krzysztof Gdawiec, Diana Domańska (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

One of the approaches in pattern recognition is the use of fractal geometry. The property of self-similarity of fractals has been used as a feature in several pattern recognition methods. All fractal recognition methods use global analysis of the shape. In this paper we present some drawbacks of these methods and propose fractal local analysis using partitioned iterated function systems with division. Moreover, we introduce a new fractal recognition method based on a dependence graph obtained from...

Properties of Conflict Sets in the Plane

Dirk Siersma (1999)

Banach Center Publications

This paper studies the smoothness and the curvature of conflict sets of the distance function in the plane. Conflict sets are also well known as 'bisectors'. We prove smoothness in the case of two convex sets and give a formula for the curvature. We generalize moreover to weighted distance functions, the so-called Johnson-Mehl model.
