Probabilistic matching and resemblance evaluation of shapes in trademark images
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...

Multimodal unbiased image matching via mutual information
In the past decade, information theory has been studied extensively in computational imaging. In particular, image matching by maximizing mutual information has been shown to yiel...

Confidence evaluation for robust, fast-converging disparity map refinement
To improve upon the initial disparity estimates stemming from a local correspondence method, a subsequent refinement step is commonly employed. The performance of the stereo match...

Blur and Contrast Invariant Fast Stereo Matching
We propose a novel approach for estimating a depth-map from a pair of rectified stereo images degraded by blur and contrast change. At each location in image space, information is...

Face matching and retrieval using soft biometrics
—Soft biometric traits embedded in a face (e.g., gender and facial marks) are ancillary information and are not fully distinctive by themselves in face-recognition tasks. However...
