Nowadays, object recognition is widely studied under the paradigm of matching local features. This work describes a genetic programming methodology that synthesizes mathematical e...
In this paper we consider the problem of reconstructing the 3D position and surface normal of points on an unknown, arbitrarily-shaped refractive surface. We show that two viewpoi...
A novel video retrieval tool based on MPEG-4 video object (VO) representation is presented. The algorithm extends the concept of edge potential functions (EPF), already used in sha...

Conformal geometry is in the core of pure mathematics. Conformal structure is more flexible than Riemaniann metric but more rigid than topology. Conformal geometric methods have p...
In this report, we consider whether statistical regularities in natural images might be exploited to provide an improved selection criterion for interest points. One approach that ...
