Existing algorithms can efficiently render refractive objects of constant refractive index. For a medium with a continuously varying index of refraction, most algorithms use the r...
A greedy-based approach to learn a compact and discriminative dictionary for sparse representation is presented. We propose an objective function consisting of two components: ent...
In recent years a considerable amount of work in graphics and geometric optimization used tools based on the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a surface. The applications of the Laplac...
Skeletonization algorithms typically decompose an object’s
silhouette into a set of symmetric parts, offering a
powerful representation for shape categorization. However,
havi...

The aim of salient point detection is to find distinctive events in images. Salient features are generally determined from the local differential structure of images. They focus o...
