Shape Analysis

Shape Analysis is a subfield of computer vision and machine vision that develops mathematical and algorithmic methods for representing, describing, and quantitatively comparing the geometric and topological properties of object shapes in images or spatial data, typically in a manner invariant to transformations such as translation, rotation, and scaling and supporting tasks such as recognition, segmentation, and shape grammar–based modeling.
