This paper presents a new method to extract a network of vessels centerlines from a medical
image. The network is composed of local geodesics over a four-dimensional space that in...
In this paper we investigate physics-based plane beam model, frequently used in mechanical and civil engineering, to track large non-linear deformations in images. Such models do ...
Abstract. We develop an axiomatic approach of vector field interpolation, which is useful as a feature extraction preprocessing step. Two operators will be singled out: the curvatu...
This paper proposes an hybrid approach to estimate the 3D pose of an object. The integration of texture information based on image intensities in a more classical non-linear edge-...
In this paper, we propose a method to distinguish between handwritten and machine-printed characters with no need to locate character or text-line positions. We transform a local ...
