Everything about Size function
Shape descriptions in a geometrical/topological sense
Size functions are shape descriptors, in a geometrical/topological sense. They are functions from the half-plane to the natural numbers, counting certain connected components of a topological space. They are used in pattern recognition and topology. Wikipedia →
