Short‐time heavy rainfall is a kind of sudden strong and heavy precipitation weather, which
seriously threatens people's life and property safety. Accurate precipitation nowcasting is of …

The skeleton of a digital image is a compact representation of its topology, geometry, and
scale. It has utility in many computer vision applications, such as image description …

In natural images, the scales (thickness) of object skeletons may dramatically vary among
objects and object parts, making object skeleton detection a challenging problem. We …

Recent advances in the joint processing of images have certainly shown its advantages over
the individual processing. Different from the existing works geared towards co-segmentation …

The pose estimation of the aircraft in the taxiing or parking state on the airport surface has
been proved helpful for the level of control and command, operation efficiency, capacity of …

Skeletonization is a process aimed to extract a line-like object shape representation,
skeleton, which is of great interest for optical character recognition, shape-based object …

Abstract Skeleton Ground Truth (GT) is critical to the success of supervised skeleton
extraction methods, especially with the popularity of deep learning techniques. Furthermore …

Contour and skeleton are two complementary representations for shape recognition.
However combining them in a principal way is nontrivial, as they are generally abstracted by …

It is widely acknowledged that object segmentation is a significant research field for
computer vision and a key process for many other visual tasks. In the past unsupervised …

Extracting stable skeletons from noisy images is a challenging problem since the
skeletonization method is prone to be affected by inner and border noise. Although many …
