Face recognition technology is a biometric technology, which is based on the identification
of facial features of a person. People collect the face images, and the recognition equipment …

We address the problem of representing and recognizing 3D free-form objects when (1) the
object viewpoint is arbitrary,(2) the objects may vary in shape and complexity, and (3) no …

Because of the continuous development of multimedia technologies, virtual worlds and
augmented reality, 3D contents become a common feature of the today information systems …

Dieses Buch bietet eine systematische Einführung in dieses neue Arbeitsfeld der
automatischen Bildanalyse. Es behandelt sämtliche wichtigen Teilaspekte, beginnend mit …

Three-dimensional object recognition entails a number of fundamental problems in
computer vision: representation of a 3D object, identification of the object from its image …

We address the problem of representing and recognizing arbitrarily curved 3D rigid objects
when: the objects may vary in shape and complexity, and no restrictive assumptions are …

This paper proposes a comparative study of 3D and 2D/3D shape descriptors (SDs) for
indexing and retrieval of 3D mesh models. Seven state of the art SDs are considered and …

This papre addresses the issue of 3D mesh indexation by using shape descriptors (SDs)
under constraints of geometric and topological invariance. A new shape descriptor, the …

Form comparison is a fundamental part of many anthropometric, biological, anthropological,
archaeological and botanical researches, etc. In traditional anthropometric form comparison …

In this paper, we consider a new shape representation for 3D object, called multi-resolution
Multi-Shell Extended Gaussian Image (MSEGI) which eliminates the major drawback of EGI …
