Minimum Description Length Based 2D Shape Description

Abstract

The problem of 2-D shape description, particularly with contour partitioning, grouping, and classification in terms of straight and curved, based on the minimum description length (MDL) criterion and shape-fitting techniques, is discussed. The MDL criterion is used to detect outliers in connection with shape fitting. Using the MDL criterion, it is possible to derive for a given data set and a class of models a description which best explains the data. A new algorithm for fitting 2-D points to an ellipse is presented.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
