Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Finding Representative Points of Closest Approach for Noisy Curves
An approach which may prove useful in object recognition by computer is the extraction of significant curves from the mass of low level vision data made avail able, for example, by an imaging range sensor. Object recognition would then reduce to a process of matching sets of curves in three-space. If a small set of points could be found which would effectively represent a set of curves object recognition could be performed even more efficiently Such a set of points might be defined in many ways, only one of which is considered here: for some pairs of curves points of closest approach are well defined and can be exploited if such points can be easily defined for noisy curves.
