In this work a new robust color and contour based object detection method in images with varying shadows is presented. The method relies on a physics-based contour detector that em...

This paper proposes a discriminative framework for efficiently aligning images. Although conventional Active Appearance Models (AAM)-based approaches have achieved some success, t...
Abstract. We describe several improvements to Freund and Schapire's AdaBoost boosting algorithm, particularly in a setting in which hypotheses may assign confidences to each o...
Image warping is a common problem when one scans or photocopies a document page from a thick bound volume, resulting in shading and curved text lines in the spine area of the boun...
