Abstract :
Vision systems typically incorporate object rigidity constraints. Such constraints are meaningful in manufacturing processes, but not in the natural visual world, where elastic objects, jointed objects, a variety of viewing geometry deformations, and variations of structure within an object class are common. This work extends the capabilities of recognition algorithms to the realm of flexible objects, discussing the development of algorithms, data structures and mathematical models for the recognition of flexible objects from a single image
