Abstract. State-of-the-art palmprint recognition algorithms achieve high accuracy based on component based texture analysis. However, they are still sensitive to local variations o...
It is a challenging and important task to retrieve images from a large and highly varied image data set based on their visual contents. Problems like how to fill the semantic gap b...
In this paper, we present Scene Structural Matrix (SSM) and apply it to the retrieval of landscape images. The SSM captures the overall structural characteristics of the scene by i...
