Deep learning has achieved significant advances for tasks such as image classification,
segmentation, and retrieval; this advance has not yet been realized on scientific and …

Recognizing cartoon characters accurately is important for animators to design and create
cartoon scenarios by utilizing existing cartoon materials. Current deep learning approaches …

Here, we intend to introduce an efficient, robust curve alignment algorithm with respect to the
group of special affine transformations of the plane denoted by SA (2, R). Such a group of …

Here, we intend to introduce a fast and non-rigid global registration for simple planar closed
curves relatively to the planar Special Affine group SA (2, R). In previous work, Ghorbel …

The acquisition of the planar images of the same object may be considerably different due to
viewpoint dependencies, which influences the shape extraction, hence possibly making the …

We propose two novel region-based descriptors for shape-based image retrieval and
analysis, which are built upon an extended tensor scale based on the Euclidean Distance …

As an increasing number of digital images are generated, a demand for an efficient and
effective image retrieval mechanisms grows. In this work, we present a new skeleton-based …

Here we propose a novel affine registration method for planar curves. It is based on a
pseudo-inverse algorithm applied to the source and target curves in their multi-scale …

In this paper, we propose a combined classifier model based on two dimensional discrete
cosine transform (2D-DCT) and Height Functions (HF) for accurate shape representation …

Radon transform based on complex shape detection is one of the most important challenges
in the field of pattern recognition. Finding a robust transform for extracting and identifying …
