This paper presents a novel method for reconstructing complex 3D objects with unknown topology using silhouettes extracted from image sequences. This method exploits the duality p...
Global gray-level thresholding techniques such as Otsu’s method, and local gray-level thresholding techniques such as adaptive thresholding method are powerful in extracting cha...
A new general framework for shape extraction is presented, based on the paradigm of water flow. The mechanism embodies the fluidity of water and hence can detect complex shapes. A ...
The most accurate methods for automatic classification of chromosomes under a light microscope today extract numerical features from band-pattern profiles along their longitudinal...
In a lip-reading system, one key issue is how to extract the visual features, which greatly impact on the lip-reading recognition accuracy and efficiency. In this paper, we propos...
