The subject of pattern analysis and recognition pervades many
aspects of our daily lives, including user authentication in
banking, object retrieval from databases in the consumer sector,
and the omnipresent surveillance and security measures around
sensitive areas. Shape analysis, a fundamental building block in
many approaches to these applications, is also used in statistics,
biomedical applications (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), and many
other related disciplines. With contributions from some of the
leading experts and pioneers in the field, this self-contained,
unified volume is the first comprehensive treatment of theory,
methods, and algorithms available in a single resource.
Developments are discussed from a rapidly increasing number of
research papers in diverse fields, including the mathematical and
physical sciences, engineering, and medicine.
