In the paper, an e cient image database system is developed. The most important features of the proposed system include compressed domain indexing, searching by using scalable fea...
This paper presents a new approach to extracting and representing structural features of images. The approach is based on both a region-based analysis and a contour-based analysis...
We present a new method for rapidly computing shadows from semi-transparent objects like hair. Our deep opacity maps method extends the concept of opacity shadow maps by using a d...
Real time terrain rendering plays a very important role in many fields, such of GIS, virtual reality, and military simulations. With the rapid development of PC-level hardware, rec...
We consider the problem of estimating the covariance matrix of an observation vector, using heterogeneous training samples, i.e., samples whose covariance matrices are not exactly ...
