Discrete Skeleton Evolution

چکیده
Skeleton can be viewed as a compact shape representation in that the shape can be completely reconstructed form the skeleton. We present a novel method for skeleton pruning that is based on this fundamental skeleton property. We iteratively remove skeleton end braches with smallest relevance for shape reconstruction. The relevance of branches is measured as their contribution to shape reconstruction. The proposed pruning method allows us to overcome the instability of skeleton representation: a small boundary deformation leads to large changes in skeleton topology. Consequently, we are able to obtain very stable skeleton representation of planar shapes.

Recognition of Shapes for Object Retrieval in Image Databases by Discrete Curve Evolution
This paper presents the recognition of shapes for object retrieval in image databases using skeleton-based and contour-based representation by discrete curve evaluation and two consecutive primitive edges. Humans tend to use high-level concepts in everyday life. Object segmentation and recognition is the primary step of computer vision to achieve image retrieval of high-level image analysis. Co...
متن کاملA meshless discrete Galerkin method for solving the universe evolution differential equations based on the moving least squares approximation
In terms of observational data, there are some problems in the standard Big Bang cosmological model. Inflation era, early accelerated phase of the evolution of the universe, can successfully solve these problems. The inflation epoch can be explained by scalar inflaton field. The evolution of this field is presented by a non-linear differential equation. This equation is considered in FLRW model...

In this article, Imam Khomeini’s political theory is investigated with the Lakatos methodology. His methodology confirms the distinction between a hard core or the original skeleton of investments and experimental propositions confirms as a protective belt for the research program. Regarding this, the claim from this article is that if we understand the system of religious knowledge of Imam Kho...
متن کاملSkeleton-based Variational Mesh Deformations
In this paper, a new free-form shape deformation approach is proposed. We combine a skeleton-based mesh deformation technique with discrete differential coordinates in order to create natural-looking global shape deformations. Given a triangle mesh, we first extract a skeletal mesh, a two-sided Voronoi-based approximation of the medial axis. Next the skeletal mesh is modified by free-form defor...
متن کاملA Fusion of Appearance based CNNs and Temporal evolution of Skeleton with LSTM for Daily Living Action Recognition
In this paper, we propose efficient method which combines skeleton information and appearance features for daily-living action recognition. Many RGB methods focus only on short term temporal information obtained from optical flow. Skeleton based methods on the other hand show that modeling long term skeleton evolution improves action recognition accuracy. In this paper we propose to fuse skelet...
