Transformation manifolds are quite attractive for image analysis applications that require transformation invariance properties. The geometric structure of a transformation manifold has a profound influence on the design of processing algorithm, and the curvature is a major parameter in the characterization of the manifold geometry. We propose here a procedure for the computation of an upper bound for the maximum principal curvature of a pattern transformation manifold. We provide an analytical formulation of the curvature bound and show that the numerical computation of this bound is mostly dependent on the rotation parameters. Experimental results indicate that the curvature bound of the manifold has considerable dependence on the spatial complexity and smoothness of the generating pattern. Moreover, experiments with discretization of manifolds suggest that the curvature of the manifold is likely to affect the accuracy of compact representation and sampling algorithms.

Distance-based discretization of parametric signal manifolds Vural, Elif (2010-06-28) The characterization of signals and images in manifolds often lead to efficient dimensionality reduction algorithms based on manifold distance computation for analysis or classification tasks. We propose in this paper a method for the discretization of signal manifolds given in a parametric form. We present an iterative algorithm for the selection of samples on the manifold that permits to minimize the average error in the manifold distance computation. Experimental results with image appearance manifolds d...
Learning Smooth Pattern Transformation Manifolds Vural, Elif (2013-04-01) Manifold models provide low-dimensional representations that are useful for processing and analyzing data in a transformation-invariant way. In this paper, we study the problem of learning smooth pattern transformation manifolds from image sets that represent observations of geometrically transformed signals. To construct a manifold, we build a representative pattern whose transformations accurately fit various input images. We examine two objectives of the manifold-building problem, namely, approximation a...
Learning pattern transformation manifolds for classification Vural, Elif (2013-02-21) Manifold models provide low-dimensional representations that are useful for analyzing and classifying data in a transformation-invariant way. In this paper we study the problem of jointly building multiple pattern transformation manifolds from a collection of image sets, where each set consists of observations from a class of geometrically transformed signals. We build the manifolds such that each manifold approximates a different signal class. Each manifold is characterized by a representative pattern that...
Modeling Electromagnetic Scattering from Random Array of Objects by Form Invariance of Maxwell's Equations ÖZGÜN, ÖZLEM; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2015-07-24) Electromagnetic scattering from a random array of objects is modeled by using special coordinate transformations that are based on the form invariance property of Maxwell's equations. The main motivation is to perform multiple realizations of Monte Carlo simulations corresponding to different positions of objects in an efficient way by using a single mesh. This is achieved by locating transformation media within the computational domain. The proposed approach is applied to finite element method and tested b...
Implementation of coordinate transformations in periodic finite-element method for modeling rough surface scattering problems ÖZGÜN, ÖZLEM; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2016-05-01) The coordinate transformation technique (with its current name of transformation electromagnetics) is applied to the finite-element method (FEM) with periodic boundary conditions for efficient Monte Carlo simulation of one-dimensional random rough surface scattering problems. In a unit cell of periodic structure, two coordinate transformations are used, one of which is a real transformation designed to model the rough surface with flat surface, and the other is a complex transformation used to design a perf...
