PDE-Based Medial Axis Extraction and Shape Manipulation of Arbitrary Meshes
Shape skeletonization (i.e., medial axis extraction) is powerful in many visual computing applications, such as pattern recognition, object segmentation, registration, and animation. In this paper, we expand the use of diffusion equations combined with distance field information to approximate medial axes of arbitrary 3D solids represented by polygonal meshes based on their differential propert...
متن کاملShape description of three-dimensional images based on medial axis
3D-shape description requires the partition of objects in different parts. In this paper, we propose a new approach based on the analysis of a 3D skeleton. The skeleton is a representation of objects by their axis of symmetry. In 3D, it is composed of surfaces associated to plate-like parts of the objet and curves associated to cylindrical parts. Our method is two parts. First, 4 types of skele...
متن کاملMedial Axis Shape Coding in Macaque Inferotemporal Cortex
The basic, still unanswered question about visual object representation is this: what specific information is encoded by neural signals? Theorists have long predicted that neurons would encode medial axis or skeletal object shape, yet recent studies reveal instead neural coding of boundary or surface shape. Here, we addressed this theoretical/experimental disconnect, using adaptive shape sampli...
متن کاملCharacter shape restoration system through medial axis points in video
Shape restoration for characters in video is challenging because natural scene characters usually suffer from low resolution, complex background and perspective distortion. In this paper, we propose histogram gradient division and reverse gradient orientation in a new way to select Text Pixel Candidates (TPC) for a given input character. We apply a ring radius transform on TPC in different dire...
متن کاملAnalysis of foot shape variation based on the medial axis of foot outline.
The variations in foot outline forms are analyzed by using flexion angles of the medial axis of foot outline. Foot outline and 12 conventional measurements taken on the right foot of 443 male and 297 female subjects with no visible pathological deformation of the foot were used for analyses. The results indicate that the foot is outflared in most of the subjects. Medial bulge and lateral concav...
