Abstract. Shape features applied to object recognition has been actively studied since the beginning of the field in 1950s and remain a viable alternative to appearance based metho...
—In this paper, we propose a circular blurred shape model descriptor to deal with the problem of symbol detection and classification as a particular case of object recognition. ...
Hand-gesture recognition presents a challenging problem for computer vision due to the articulated structure of the human hand and the complexity of the environments in which it is...
In this paper we describe the first stage of a new learning system for object detection and recognition. For our system we propose Boosting [5] as the underlying learning technique...

Recent work in object categorization often uses local image descriptors such as SIFT to learn and detect object categories. Such descriptors explicitly code local appearance and h...
