Illumination invariance remains the most researched, yet the most challenging aspect of automatic face recognition. In this paper we propose a novel, general recognition framework...
A method for color indexing is proposed that is based upon nonparametric statistical techniques. Nonparametrics compare the ordinal rankings of sample populations, and maintain the...
A statistical representation of three-dimensional shapes is introduced, based on a novel four-dimensional feature. The feature parameterizes the intrinsic geometrical relation of ...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for estimating disparity for images containing large textureless regions. We propose a fast and efficient region growing algorithm for estima...
We propose a scene classification method, which combines two popular methods in the literature: Spatial Pyramid Matching (SPM) and probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA) mod...
