In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for automatic and fast detection of human faces in color images where the number, the location, the orientation and the size of the faces ...
In this paper, we exploit a recently introduced coding algorithm called multidimensional multiscale parser (MMP) as an alternative to the traditional transform quantization-based m...

Recently, detective quantum efficiency (DQE) arising from the concept of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) has been used for assessing digital x-ray imaging systems. Using a phase-shift ...
Figure-ground discrimination is an important problem in computer vision. Previous work usually assumes that the color distribution of the figure can be described by a low dimensio...
We present a method to detect characters on signboards in natural scene images. For many applications, both classifier with small computational cost and the efficient feature set,...
