Retrieving articulated 3-D models using medial surfaces
Abstract We consider the use of medial surfaces to represent symmetries of 3-D objects. This allows for a qualitative abstraction based on a directed acyclic graph of components an...

Hybrid kinetic-MHD simulations in general geometry
We present a hybrid kinetic-MHD model consisting of 3 species, the bulk fluid ions and electrons, and a kinetic minority hot particle species. The 3 species equations are derived ...

Contour Retrieval and Matching by Affine Invariant Fourier Descriptors
In the image plane, a 3 Dimensional movement of planar rigid object can be represented satisfactory by an affine motion of his boundary (the exterior contour) which we assume to b...

Recursive scan-matching SLAM
This paper presents Scan-SLAM, a new generalisation of simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM). SLAM implementations based on extended Kalman filter (EKF) data fusion have t...

Retrieval of historical documents by word spotting
The implementation of word spotting is not an easy procedure and it gets even worse in the case of historical documents since it requires character recognition and indexing of the...
