These geometries are typically defined using either the shortest path length (geodesic distance), or properties of heat diffusion (diffusion distance) on the surface. Both measures are implicitly derived from the metric induced by the ambient Euclidean space. In this paper, we depart from this restrictive assumption by observing that a different choice of the metric results in a richer set of geometric invariants. We apply equi-affine geometry for analyzing arbitrary shapes with positive Gaussian curvature. The potential of the proposed framework is explored in a range of applications such as shape matching and retrieval, symmetry detection, and computation of Voroni tessellation. We show that in some shape analysis tasks, equi-affine-invariant intrinsic geometries often outperform their Euclidean-based counterparts. We further explore the potential of this metric in facial anthropometry of newborns. We show that intrinsic properties of this homogeneous group are better captured using the equi-affine metric."}],"status":"public","day":"01","_id":"18353","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision","date_published":"2014-09-01T00:00:00Z","oa_version":"None","title":"Equi-affine invariant geometry for shape analysis","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","publisher":"Springer Nature"}
