The task of face recognition has been actively researched in recent years. This paper
provides an up-to-date review of major human face recognition research. We first present an …

The automatic recognition of human faces presents a significant challenge to the pattern
recognition research community. Typically, human faces are very similar in structure with …

We investigated how shape features in natural images influence emotions aroused in
human beings. Shapes and their characteristics such as roundness, angularity, simplicity …

Given N ordered points in the plane and a constant M< N, an efficient algorithm is proposed
to find M points, among those given, which define a polygonal curve that is a globally …

This paper presents a novel feature-based method that is built upon a convolutional neural
network (CNN) to learn the deep representation for multimodal retinal image registration. We …

Logo recognition is of great interest in the document and shape analysis domain. In order to
develop a recognition method that is robust to employ under adverse conditions such as …

The automatic recognition of facial expression presents a significant challenge to the pattern
analysis and man-machine interaction research community. Recognition from a single static …

A novel ellipse detector based upon edge following is proposed in this paper. The detector
models edge connectivity by line segments and exploits these line segments to construct a …

A novel method for vectorizing line drawing images is presented. The method is based on a
sequence of a standard vectorization algorithm and maximum threshold morphology, which …

In this paper, a new dynamic strip algorithm for fitting a curve with lines is presented. The
algorithm first finds the best fitted left-hand side and right-hand side strips at each point on …
