In image retrieval, most existing approaches that incorporate local features produce high dimensional vectors, which lead to a high computational and data storage cost. Moreover, ...
This paper presents a novel and efficient facial image representation based on local binary pattern (LBP) texture features. The face image is divided into several regions from whi...
We construct a mixture of locally linear generative models of a collection of pixel-based images of digits, and use them for recognition. Different models of a given digit are use...
The paper deals with grouping of edges to contours of shapes using only local symmetry and continuity. Shape skeletons are used to generate the search space for a version of the M...
—Keypoints on 3D surfaces are points that can be extracted repeatably over a wide range of 3D imaging conditions. They are used in many 3D shape processing applications; for exam...
