Scale-Space on Image Profiles about an Object Boundary
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The profiles are sampled from the image in the fashion of Active Shape Models [2], and a scale-space is constructed on the profiles, where diffusion is run only in directions tangent to the boundary. ...
Features from the scale-space are then used to build a statistical model of the image structure about the boundary, trained on a population of images with corresponding geometric models. ...
The image intensities sampled at the object boundary form a texture map on the surface of the object. The Laplace-Beltrami operator can then be used to blur this texture map. ...

arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we explore the use of the diffusion geometry framework for the fusion of geometric and photometric information in local and global shape descriptors. ...
Experimental results show that such data fusion is useful in coping with different challenges of shape analysis where pure geometric and pure photometric methods fail. ...
Here, we use the structure of E to model joint geometric and photometric information. Such an approach has been successfully used in image processing [15] . ...
