this paper discusses an ongoing project for hand gesture recognition in computer vision systems. the proposed approach is based on the shape analysis tools introduced by R.M. Cesar Jr. and L. da F. Costa (1997). More specifically, the wavelet transform is used to generate features for the recognition of hand gestures based on contours.

Because of their storage conditions, old movies may present different defect types of different shapes and sizes. We propose a method for old movie restoration using opening by surface which eliminates image information by area attribute, independent of the shape of its components.

Studies the advantages and disadvantages of fractal image compression (FlC) compared to wavelet transform compression (WTC). Our results indicate that there is an advantage in FIC for high compression ratios when we take the image quality into account. Considering the compression speed we have a significant difference, which indicates that WTC is much faster than FIC.

We introduce variable resolution 4-k meshes, a powerful structure for the representation of geometric objects at multiple levels of detail. It combines most properties of other related descriptions with several advantages, such as more flexibility and greater expressive power. the main unique feature of the 4-k mesh structure lies in its variable resolution capability, which is crucial for adaptive computation. We also give an overview of the different methods for constructing the hierarchical 4-k mesh representation, as well as the basic algorithms necessary to incorporate it in modeling and graphics applications.

the work describes a new algorithm for segmentation of handwritten cursive words, based on the following two hypotheses: 1) natural segmentation points (SPs) exist corresponding to disconnected characters; and 2) the physical SPs between connected characters are located in ligatures. the morphological operations of opening and closing are utilized in the determination of word ligatures. A genetic algorithm was employed in the search for the optimum structuring element to determine ligatures.
