Shape in Picture Mathematical Description of Shape in Grey-level Images

The fields of image analysis, computer vision, and artificial intelligence all make use of descriptions of shape in grey-level images. Most existing algorithms for the automatic recognition and classification of particular shapes have been devel­ oped for specific purposes, with the result that thes...
