Shape similarity by homotopic deformation

Published: 01 February 2000 Publication History

Abstract

+n log n) time, where n is the number of vertices in the polygonal shapes and k is an index to indicate how the target shape is convoluted. Experimental results show the feasibility of our approach. Extending the method for comparison of scenes with mutiple objects is also discussed.
