This chapter presents an approach for texture and object recognition that uses scale- or affine-invariant local image features in combination with a discriminative classifier. Text...
Many approaches to object recognition are founded on probability theory, and can be broadly characterized as either generative or discriminative according to whether or not the di...
—Patch-based face recognition is a recent method which uses the idea of analyzing face images locally, in order to reduce the effects of illumination changes and partial occlusio...
Recognition of 3D objects from different viewpoints is a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a new method to recognize 3D range images by matching local surface descripto...
