Oriented matroids for shape representation and indexing
Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis (IbPRIA), Port d'Andratx (Spain)In this paper a novel method for indexing views of 3D objects is presented. The topological properties of the regions of the segmented images of the objects are used to define an index based on oriented matroid theory. Oriented matroids, which are projective invariants, encode incidence relations and relative position of the elements of the image and give local and global topological information about their spatial distribution. This indexing technique is applied to 3D object hypothesis generation from single views to reduce the number of candidates in object recognition processes.Peer Reviewe

Shape representation and indexing based on region connection calculus and oriented matroid theory
International Conference on Discrete Geometry for Computer Imagery (DGCI), 2003, Naples (Italy)In this paper a novel method for indexing views of 3D objects is presented. The topological properties of the regions of the views of a set of objects are used to define an index based on the region connection calculus and oriented matroid theory. Both are formalisms for qualitative spatial representation and reasoning and are complementary in the sense that whereas the region connection calculus encodes information about connectivity of pairs of connected regions of the view, oriented matroids encode relative position of the disjoint regions of the view and give local and global topological information about their spatial distribution. This indexing technique is applied to 3D object hypothesis generation from single views to reduce candidates in object recognition processes.Peer Reviewe

Object and image indexing based on region connection calculus and oriented matroid theory
In this paper a novel method for indexing views of 3D objects is presented. The topological properties of the regions of views of an object or of a set of objects are used to define an index based on region connection calculus and oriented matroid theory. Both are formalisms for qualitative spatial representation and reasoning and are complementary in the sense that, whereas region connection calculus characterize connectivity of couples of connected regions of views, oriented matroids encode relative position of disjoint regions of views and give local and global topological information about their spatial distribution. This indexing technique has been applied to hypothesis generation from a single view to reduce the number of candidates in 3D object recognition processes
Smith Normal Form in Combinatorics
This paper surveys some combinatorial aspects of Smith normal form, and more
generally, diagonal form. The discussion includes general algebraic properties
and interpretations of Smith normal form, critical groups of graphs, and Smith
normal form of random integer matrices. We then give some examples of Smith
normal form and diagonal form arising from (1) symmetric functions, (2) a
result of Carlitz, Roselle, and Scoville, and (3) the Varchenko matrix of a
hyperplane arrangement.Comment: 17 pages, 3 figure
