Reconstructing 3D scenes from multiple views has made impressive strides in recent years, chiefly by correlating isolated feature points, intensity patterns, or curvilinear structures. In the general setting - without controlled…
We present a mathematical and algorithmic scheme for learning the principal geometric elements in an image or 3D object. We build on recent work that convexifies the basic problem of finding a combination of a small number shapes that…
We present a novel methodology that combines graph and dense segmentation techniques by jointly learning both point and pixel contour representations, thereby leveraging the benefits of each approach. This addresses deficiencies in typical…
We introduce a guide to help deep learning practitioners understand and manipulate convolutional neural network architectures. The guide clarifies the relationship between various properties (input shape, kernel shape, zero padding, strides…
This work proposes a new formulation to the long-standing problem of convex decomposition through learning feature fields, enabling the first feed-forward model for open-world convex decomposition. Our method produces high-quality…
In this paper, we present a novel implicit glyph shape representation, which models glyphs as shape primitives enclosed by quadratic curves, and naturally enables generating glyph images at arbitrary high resolutions. Experiments on font…
We propose a new shape-based modeling technique for applications in imaging problems. Given a collection of shape priors (a shape dictionary), we define our problem as choosing the right dictionary elements and geometrically composing them…
Shape analysis methods have in the past few years become very popular, both for theoretical exploration as well as from an application point of view. Originally developed for planar curves, these methods have been expanded to higher…
This paper introduces a new shape-matching methodology, combinative matching, to combine interlocking parts for geometric shape assembly. Previous methods for geometric assembly typically rely on aligning parts by finding identical surfaces…
Recent techniques have been successful in reconstructing surfaces as level sets of learned functions (such as signed distance fields) parameterized by deep neural networks. Many of these methods, however, learn only closed surfaces and are…
In this work, we propose a new segmentation algorithm for images containing convex objects present in multiple shapes with a high degree of overlap. The proposed algorithm is carried out in two steps, first we identify the visible contours,…
Convolutional layers in graph neural networks are a fundamental type of layer which output a representation or embedding of each graph vertex. The representation typically encodes information about the vertex in question and its…
We cast shape matching as metric learning with convolutional networks. We break the end-to-end process of image representation into two parts. Firstly, well established efficient methods are chosen to turn the images into edge maps.…
For many applications, we need to use techniques to represent convex shapes and objects. In this work, we use level set method to represent shapes and find a necessary and sufficient condition on the level set function to guarantee the…
We present a novel and effective binary representation for convex shapes. We show the equivalence between the shape convexity and some properties of the associated indicator function. The proposed method has two advantages. Firstly, the…
We propose a novel shape representation useful for analyzing and processing shape collections, as well for a variety of learning and inference tasks. Unlike most approaches that capture variability in a collection by using a template model…
Curves are essential concepts that enable compounded aesthetic curves, e.g., to assemble complex silhouettes, match a specific curvature profile in industrial design, and construct smooth, comfortable, and safe trajectories in vehicle-robot…
This paper proposes the estimation of a mutual shape from a set of different segmentation results using both active contours and information theory. The mutual shape is here defined as a consensus shape estimated from a set of different…
Past approaches for statistical shape analysis of objects have focused mainly on objects within the same topological classes, e.g., scalar functions, Euclidean curves, or surfaces, etc. For objects that differ in more complex ways, the…
A new algorithm for computing a point on a polynomial or rational curve in B\'{e}zier form is proposed. The method has a geometric interpretation and uses only convex combinations of control points. The new algorithm's computational…
