Abstract

In statistical shape analysis, curve matching is often used to find correspondences between the sample points of a curve image and those of another curve image by using a dissimilarity measure of curve images. In this paper, we present a novel dissimilarity measure of curve images to be used in curve matching, together with a way of distributing sample points on each curve image. We prove that the dissimilarity measure has an asymptotic guarantee for finding a part of a curve image which is similar to a part of another one, with their respective sample points.
