This book focuses on the theory and latest research of invariant object recognition based on elastic graph matching techniques. The book consists of two parts: the first covers a general definition of the vision object recognition, with a formal overall classification for different types of vision object recognition systems. The second part covers all the latest works and applications of the Elastic Graph Dynamic Link Model. It includes handwritten Chinese character recognition, human face recognition, object segmentation and scene analysis and the latest research on tropical cyclone patters identification and tracking mining.
