We introduce a new multimodal retrieval technique which combines query reformulation and visual image reranking in order to deal with results sparsity and imprecision, respectively...
Based on the analysis of color histogram for image retrieval, a new descriptor, bit-plane distribution entropy (BPDE), is proposed in this paper. The image is firstly divided into ...
Abstract. We present a method for learning feature descriptors using multiple images, motivated by the problems of mobile robot navigation and localization. The technique uses the ...

In image processing, the Rudin-Osher-Fatemi (ROF) model [L. Rudin, S. Osher, and E. Fatemi, Physica D, 60(1992), pp. 259–268] based on total variation (TV) minimization has prove...
* In this paper, we present a study of hierarchically characterizing image content from coarse level to fine level conducted using a series of shape features as a case in point. I...
