• closedAccess   Erythrocyte shape classification using integral-geometry-based methods 

      Gual-Arnau, Ximo; Herold-García, Silena; Simó, Amelia Springer (2015)
      Erythrocyte shape deformations are related to different important illnesses. In this paper, we focus on one of the most important: the Sickle cell disease. This disease causes the hardening or polymerization of the hemoglobin ...
    • openAccess   Geometric analysis of planar shapes with applications to cell deformations 

      Gual-Arnau, Ximo; Herold-García, Silena; Simó, Amelia International Society for Stereology (2015-07)
      Shape analysis is of great importance in many fields such as computer vision, medical imaging, and computational biology. In this paper we focus on a shape space in which shapes are represented by means of planar closed ...
    • closedAccess   Measure of Segments which Intersect a Convex Body from Rotational Formulae 

      Gual-Arnau, Ximo; Herold-García, Silena Springer (2015-02)
      Classical problems in integral geometry and geometric probability involve the kinematic measure of congruent segments of fixed length within a convex body in ℝ3. We give this measure from rotational formulae; that is, from ...
    • closedAccess   Shape description from generalized support functions 

      Gual-Arnau, Ximo; Simó, Amelia; Herold-García, Silena Elsevier (2013)
      The generalized support function is considered to be a representation of shape properties of compact connected sets in R2. Some interesting properties are studied and several parameters are defined for use in shape description ...
