Description: Physical objects with boundaries that are irregular-random shapes- occur in profusion in the      natural world. Simple mathematical models for random shapes are described. The models      are generated by 'adding' a random process to a deterministic shape. Ornstein-Uhlenbeck      processes are generalized to allow innovation having symmetric stable laws.
