Ricci flow is a powerful curvature flow method in geometric analysis. This work is the first application of surface Ricci flow in computer vision. We show that previous methods ba...

Pasting somebody's face into an existing image with traditional photo retouching and digital image processing tools has only been possible if both images show the face from t...

We present a new histogram distance family, the Quadratic-Chi (QC). QC members are Quadratic-Form distances with a cross-bin χ2 -like normalization. The cross-bin χ2 -like normal...
Phase features are widely used in image processing and representation due to their stability to deformation and noise [1, 2]. However, phase singularities,where the signals vanish...
We introduce a new image representation that encompasses both the general layout of groups of quantized local invariant descriptors as well as their relative frequency. A graph of...
