Categorisation of Shapes Using Shape Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a shape categorisation method for architectural drawings that takes shape characteristics derived from those drawings as features. We propose a feature-based shape analysis procedure and a formal model of shape categorisation based upon the measurement of featural similarity of shapes. Shape categorisation is demonstrated in experiments on architectural drawings.

Exemplar-based pitch accent categorisation using the generalized context model
This paper presents the results of a pitch accent categorisation simulation which attempts to classify L*H and H*L accents using a psychologically motivated exemplar-theoretic model of categorisation. Pitch accents are represented in terms of six linguistically meaningful parameters describing their shape. No additional information is employed in the categorisation process. The results indicate...
متن کاملTripartite Line Tracks Qualitative Curvature Information
We present a qualitative shape description which has previously been proven to be useful for object categorisation. The description is based on a set of shape primitives which we will restrict to a new subset of relations representing stylised curvature information. In contrast to other qualitative shape theories, this description enables us to distinguish different convex shapes. This is espec...
متن کاملShape up, Baby! Perception, Image Schemas, and Shapes in Concept Formation
Embodied cognition has emphasised the importance of sensorimotor processes for concept formation. According to this theory, image schemas are suggested to be a cognitive representation of certain basic spatial relationships. At the same time, the shape of objects is essential for categorisation and understanding. While information on both shapes and image schemas are primarily obtained through ...
متن کاملTripartite Line Tracks
A new approach to qualitatively describe shapes is introduced. A set of qualitatively distinct polygons is proposed, which can be characterised by a number of predicates. Interesting properties concerning the similarity of different polygons arise. As a result, the difficulty in defining equivalence classes of polygons can be overcome in a special qualitative manner. The usefulness of this appr...
متن کاملPartial shape matching using genetic algorithms
Shape recognition is a challenging task when images contain overlapping, noisy, occluded, partial shapes. This paper addresses the task of matching input shapes with model shapes described in terms of features such as line segments and angles. The quality of matching is gauged using a measure derived from attributed shape grammars. We apply genetic algorithms to the partial shape-matching task....
