On the Equivalence of Common Approaches to Lighting Insensitive Recognition
Lighting variation is commonly handled by methods invariant to additive and multiplicative changes in image intensity. It has been demonstrated that comparing images using the dir...

Part-Based Probabilistic Point Matching
Correspondence algorithms typically struggle with shapes that display part-based variation. We present a probabilistic approach that matches shapes using independent part transfor...

Stroke Segmentation of Chinese Characters Using Markov Random Fields
This paper presents Markov random fields (MRFs) to segment strokes of Chinese characters. The distortions caused by the thinning process make the thinning-based stroke segmentatio...

Efficient retrieval of similar shapes
Abstract. We propose an indexing technique for the fast retrieval of objects in 2D images based on similarity between their boundary shapes. Our technique is robust in the presence...

Pose Normalization for Local Appearance-Based Face Recognition
Abstract. We focused this work on handling variation in facial appearance caused by 3D head pose. A pose normalization approach based on fitting active appearance models (AAM) on ...
