Straightening and Partitioning Shapes
نویسنده
چکیده
A method for partitioning shapes is described based on a global convexity measure. Its advantages are that its global nature makes it robust to noise, and apart from the number of partitioning cuts no parameters are required. In order to ensure that the method operates correctly on bent or undulating shapes a process is developed that identifies the underlying bending and removes it, straightening out the shape. Results are shown on a large range of shapes.

An Efficient Representation for Computing Geodesics Between n-Dimensional Elastic Shapes
We propose an efficient representation for studying shapes of closed curves in R. This paper combines the strengths of two important ideas elastic shape metric and path-straightening methods and results in a very fast algorithm for finding geodesics in shape spaces. The elastic metric allows for optimal matching of features between the two curves while path-straightening ensures that the algori...
متن کاملA Path-straightening Method for Finding Geodesics on Shapes Spaces of Closed Curves in R
In order to analyze shapes of continuous curves in R3, we parameterize them by arclength and represent them as curves on a unit two-sphere. We identify the set denoting the closed curves, and study its differential geometry. To compute geodesics between any two such curves, we connect them with an arbitrary path, and then iteratively straighten this path using the gradient of an energy associat...
