We investigate the problem of learning optimal descriptors for a given classification task. Many hand-crafted descriptors have been proposed in the literature for measuring visua...
Recognition using appearance features is confounded by
phenomena that cause images of the same object to look different,
or images of different objects to look the same. This
ma...

This paper presents a novel framework to localize in a photograph prominent irregularities in facial skin, in particular nevi (moles, birthmarks). Their characteristic configurati...
Image classification often relies on texture characterization. Yet texture characterization has so far rarely been based on a true 2D multifractal analysis. Recently, a 2D wavelet...
In our earlier work, we found that feature space induced by tactile receptive fields (TRFs) are better than that by visual receptive fields (VRFs) in texture boundary detection t...
