Image registration is the process of precisely overlaying two (or more) images of the same
area through geometrically aligning common features (or control points) identified in the …

This paper proposes a novel graph matching algorithm and applies it to shape recognition
based on object silhouettes. The main idea is to match skeleton graphs by comparing the …

Three-dimensional shape retrieval is a problem of current interest in several different fields,
especially in the mechanical engineering domain. There exists a large body of work in …

Written by leading researchers, the 2nd Edition of the Dictionary of Computer Vision & Image
Processing is a comprehensive and reliable resource which now provides explanations of …

To fully exploit the valuable knowledge embedded in repositories of digital models, it is
crucial to devise search engines capable of expressing high-level and advanced queries …

Object recognition can be formulated as matching image features to model features. When
recognition is exemplar-based, feature correspondence is one-to-one. However …

This paper describes a novel solution to the rigid point pattern matching problem in
Euclidean spaces of any dimension. Although we assume rigid motion, jitter is allowed. We …

Interest-point matching is a key technique for image registration. It is widely used for 3-D
shape reconstruction, change detection, medical image processing, computerized visioning …

Todays abundance of storage coupled with digital technologies in virtually any scientific or
commercial application such as medical and biological imaging or music archives deal with …

This paper presents an approach to region-based hierarchical image matching, where,
given two images, the goal is to identify the largest part in image 1 and its match in image 2 …
