We address segmentation of an image into patches that have an underlying salient surface-roughness. Three intrinsic images are derived: reflectance, shading and metatexture images...
Estimating photo-consistency is one of the most important ingredients for any 3D stereo reconstruction technique that is based on a volumetric scene representation. This paper pres...
We present a new L1-distance-based k-means clustering algorithm to address the challenge of clustering high-dimensional proportional vectors. The new algorithm explicitly incorpor...

In this paper we present a novel method to estimate curvature of iso grey-level surfaces in grey-value images. Our method succeeds where isophote curvature fails. There is neither...

In this paper we propose a multicast-on-large-demand (MOLD) approach to the flash crowd problem. A MOLD Web server may dynamically open a multicast channel for resources when dete...
