A new approach is presented for partitioning an image database by classifying and indexing the convex hull shapes and the number of region concavities. The result is a significant...
This paper addresses the shape-based segmentation problem using level sets. In particular, we propose a fast algorithm to solve the piece-wise constant Chan-Vese segmentation mode...
In this paper, we propose a new variational framework for computing continuous curve skeletons from discrete objects that are suitable for structural shape representation. We have...
In clinical applications where structural asymmetries between homologous shapes have been correlated with pathology, the questions of definition and quantification of ‘asymmetr...

Since the work by Osher and Sethian on level-sets algorithms for numerical shape evolutions, this technique has been used for a large number of applications in numerous fields. In...
