In this paper, we present a novel approach for the multi-oriented text line extraction from handwritten Arabic documents. After image pre-processing, the local orientations are de...
Monte Carlo ray tracing remains a simple and elegant method for generating robust shadows. This approach, however, is often hampered by the time needed to evaluate the numerous sh...
We address the joint problem of clustering heterogenous clients and allocating scalable video source rate and FEC redundancy in IPTV systems. We propose a streaming solution that ...
Image-based location estimation methods typically recognize every photo independently, and their resulting reliance on strong visual feature matches makes them most suited for dis...
—Document images captured by a mobile phone camera often have perspective distortions. In this paper, fast and robust vanishing point detection methods for such perspective docum...
