This paper introduces a novel method for noise reduction in medical images based on concepts of the Non-Local Means algorithm. The main objective has been to develop a method that ...
In video surveillance, the size of face images is very small. However, few works have been done to investigate scale invariant face recognition. Our experiments on appearance-base...
This paper develops an unsupervised discriminant projection (UDP) technique for feature extraction. UDP takes the local and non-local information into account, seeking to find a p...
The performance of fingerprint matching algorithm relies heavily on the accuracy of fingerprint alignment. Falsely aligning two feature sets extracted from two finger images of a f...
Abstract. Privacy protection in publishing transaction data is an important problem. A key feature of transaction data is the extreme sparsity, which renders any single technique i...
