In this paper, we propose a method for extracting image features which utilizes 2 nd order statistics, i.e., spatial and orientational auto-correlations of local gradients. It enab...
We propose a novel approach to improve the distinctiveness of local image features without significantly affecting their robustness with respect to image deformations. Local image...
Object detection is challenging partly due to the limited discriminative power of local feature descriptors. We amend this limitation by incorporating spatial constraints among ne...
In this work a new method is proposed for coding artifact reduction of MPEG compressed video sequences. The method makes use of a simple cost-effective technique that allows the b...
This paper describes a novel registration approach that is based on a combination of visual and 3D range information. To identify correspondences, local visual features obtained f...
