Shape representation via conformal mapping
Representation and comparison of shapes is a problem with many applications in computer vision and imaging, including object recognition and medical diagnosis. We will discuss some constructions from the theory of conformal mapping which provide ways to represent and compare planar shapes. It is a remarkable fact that conformal maps from the unit disk to a planar domain encode the geometry of t...
متن کاملCharacterizing Shape Using Conformal Factors
We present a new 3D shape descriptor based on conformal geometry. Our descriptor is invariant under non-rigid quasi-isometric transformations, such as pose changes of articulated models, and is both compact and efficient to compute. We demonstrate the performance of our descriptor on a database of watertight models, and show it is comparable with state-of-the-art descriptors.
متن کاملConformal Alpha Shape-based Multi-scale Curvature Estimation from Point Clouds
Multi-scale geometrical and topological analyses of point clouds can reveal their rich structures. Because conformal alpha shapes of point clouds are hierarchical shapes under different mesh resolution or internal alpha values, their surface curvature estimations are one of the multi-scale geometrical analyses. We present a robust method for computing surface curvature of conformal alpha shapes...
متن کامل2D-Shape Analysis Using Conformal Mapping
The study of 2D shapes and their similarities is a central problem in the field of vision. It arises in particular from the task of classifying and recognizing objects from their observed silhouette. Defining natural distances between 2D shapes creates a metric space of shapes, whose mathematical structure is inherently relevant to the classification task. One intriguing metric space comes from...
متن کاملConformal modulus : the graph paper invariant or The conformal shape of an algorithm
This paper is an expository paper about our joint work, which the first author presented in a series of lectures at the University of Auckland (New Zealand), the University of Melbourne (Australia), and the Australian National University in Canberra (Australia). We express appreciation for the kindness and interest of all the many wonderful mathematicians and their families whom that author and...
