Combinatorial graph cut algorithms have been successfully applied to a wide range of problems in vision and graphics. This paper focusses on possibly the simplest application of gr...
—We describe an approach for segmenting a moving image into regions that correspond to surfaces in the scene that are partially surrounded by the medium. It integrates both appea...
A method for video indexing and filtering based on motion activity characteristics in hierarchical levels is proposed. To extract motion activity information, an MPEG (MPEG-1/2) v...
Abstract. Multiresolution techniques are often used to shorten the execution times of dynamic programming based deformable contour optimization methods by decreasing the image reso...
We present a novel approach for measuring image similarity based on the composition of parts. The measure identifies common subregions between the images at multiple sizes, and e...
