Image matting deals with finding the probability that each pixel in an image belongs to a user specified `object' or to the remaining `background'. Most existing methods...
Texture information in images is coupled with geometric macrostructures and piecewise-smooth intensity variations. Decomposing an image f into a geometric structure component u an...
Mean shift is a nonparametric estimator of density which has been applied to image and video segmentation. Traditional mean shift based segmentation uses a radially symmetric kerne...

Abstract. We address the problem of comparing sets of images for object recognition, where the sets may represent arbitrary variations in an object's appearance due to changin...
In lossy image compression schemes utilizing the discrete cosine transform (DCT), quantization of the DCT coefficients introduces error in the image representation and a loss of s...
