Screened Poisson Hyperfields for Shape Coding
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel perspective on shape characterization using the screened Poisson equation. We discuss that the e↵ect of the screening parameter is a change of measure of the underlying metric space; also indicating a conditioned random walker biased by the choice of measure. A continuum of shape fields is created, by varying the screening parameter or equivalently the bias of the random walker. In addition to creating a regional encoding of the di↵usion with a di↵erent bias, we further break down the influence of boundary interactions by considering a number of independent random walks, each emanating from a certain boundary point, and the superposition of which yields the screened Poisson field. Probing the screened Poisson equation from these two complementary perspectives leads to a high-dimensional hyper-field: a rich characterization of the shape that encodes global, local, interior and boundary interactions. To extract particular shape information as needed in a compact way from the hyper-field, we apply various decompositions either to unveil parts of a shape or parts of boundary or to create consistent mappings. The latter technique involves lower dimensional embeddings, which we call Screened Poisson Encoding Maps (SPEM). The expressive power of the SPEM is demonstrated via illustrative experiments as well as a quantitative shape retrieval experiment over a public benchmark database on which the SPEM method shows a highranking performance among the existing state-of-the-art shape retrieval methods.

Interior and Exterior Shape Representations Using the Screened Poisson Equation
Shape classification is a required task in many systems for image and video understanding. Implicit shape representations, such as the solutions to the Eikonal or Poisson equations defined on the shape, have been shown to be particularly effective for generating features that are useful for classification. The Poisson-based shape representation can be derived at each point inside the shape as t...

Gompertz-Poisson distribution is a three-parameter lifetime distribution with increasing, decreasing, increasing-decreasing and unimodal shape failure rate function and a composition of Gompertz and Poisson distributions cut at zero point that in this paper estimated the parameters of the distribution by maximum likelihood method and in order to confirm the calculated estimates, based on random...
متن کاملOrderings and Signatures of Higher Level on Multirings and Hyperfields
Multirings are objects like rings but with multi-valued addition. They are a variant of other objects called hyperrings, defined by Krasner [12], [13]. In [16] the second author defines multirings, introduces a certain special class of multirings called real reduced multirings, defines a natural reflection A Ã Qred(A) from the category of multirings satisfying −1 / ∈ ∑ A2 to the full subcategor...
متن کاملElectrostatic analysis of the charged surface in a solution via the finite element method: The Poisson-Boltzmann theory
Electrostatic potential as well as the local volume charge density are computed for a macromolecule by solving the Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE) using the finite element method (FEM). As a verification, our numerical results for a one dimensional PBE, which corresponds to an infinite-length macromolecule, are compared with the existing analytical solution and good agreement is found. As a ma...
