A feature extraction method using the chaincode representation of fingerprint ridge contours is presented. The representation allows efficient image quality enhancement and detect...
The basic and widely used edge detection operation in an image usually requires a prior step of setting the edge detector parameters (thresholds, blurring extent etc.). Finding th...
When available, vanishing points in a scene are a key factor in effectively recovering absolute camera orientation, thus simplifying the structure-from-motion problem. We present ...
A novel method for extracting parametric junction and corner features in images is presented. By treating each complex feature as a combination of elementary line and edge feature...
In this paper we propose a novel feature, called directional entropy feature (DEF), to improve the performance of human detection under complicated background in images. DEF descr...
