Body patterns in cephalopods

Pattern Recognition Letters, 2007
Here we overview the knowledge available on polyphenism in cephalopods: a peculiar characteristic of the behaviour of octopus, cuttlefish and squid. This is achieved through body patterning that is the mutable appearance of the skin of these species.

Rigid body constrained noisy point pattern matching

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 1995
Noisy pattern matching problems arise in many areas, e.g., computational vision, robotics, guidance and control, stereophotogrammetry, astronomy, genetics, and high-energy physics. Least-squares pattern matching over the Euclidean space E(n) for unordered sets of cardinalities p and q is commonly formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem ...
