Pattern variation is a major factor that affects the performance of recognition systems. In this paper, a novel manifold tangent modeling method called Discriminant Additive Tange...
— Common human actions are instantly recognizable by people and increasingly machines need to understand this language if they are to engage smoothly with people. Here we introdu...
We propose a new circularity measure inspired from Arkin [1], Latecki [9] tools of shape matching that is constructed in a tangent space. We then introduce a linear algorithm that...
This paper presents a geometric approach to recognizing smooth objects from their outlines. We define a signature function that associates feature vectors with objects and baseline...

This paper proposes a new technique of figureground discrimination of color characters in scene images following two steps. The first step is temporary binarization by selecting o...
