Binary Morphology and Local Statistics Applied to Iris Segmentation for Recognition
One of the first steps in iris recognition is isolating (or segmenting) the iris from an image of the subject's eye area. This paper investigates new approaches for locating ...

Detection of Curvilinear Structures Using the Euclidean Distance Transform
In this paper, we present a new method for detecting curvilinear structures in a gray-scale image. The concept of skeleton extraction is introduced to detect more general structur...

Block-Based Methods for Image Retrieval Using Local Binary Patterns
In this paper, two block-based texture methods are proposed for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). The approaches use the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) texture feature as the sourc...

Compression of large binary images in digital spatial libraries
A method for lossless compression of large binary images is proposed for applications where spatial access to the image is needed. The method utilizes the advantages of (1) variabl...

Near-Maximum Entropy Models for Binary Neural Representations of Natural Images
Maximum entropy analysis of binary variables provides an elegant way for studying the role of pairwise correlations in neural populations. Unfortunately, these approaches suffer f...
