In this paper, an information theoretic framework for image segmentation is presented. This approach is based on the information channel that goes from the image intensity histogr...
Movies segmentation into semantically correlated units is a quite tedious task due to ”semantic gap”. Low-level features do not provide useful information about the semantical...
We investigate the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval. The EMD is based on the minimal cost ...
In this paper, two block-based texture methods are proposed for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). The approaches use the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) texture feature as the sourc...
An innovative technique for segmentation of color images is proposed. The technique implements an approach based on thresholding of the hue histogram. A new function for detecting...
