In this paper, the duality in differential form is developed between a 3D primal surface and its dual manifold formed by the surface's tangent planes, i.e., each tangent plan...
Abstract. Image matting and segmentation are two closely related topics that concern extracting the foreground and background of an image. While the methods based on global optimiz...
In this paper, we propose two ways of improving image classification based on bag-of-words representation [25]. Two shortcomings of this representation are the loss of the spatial...
Conventional approaches to image retrieval are based on the assumption that relevant images are physically near the query image in some feature space. This is the basis of the clu...
The standard morphological operators are (i) defined on Euclidean space, (ii) based on structuring elements, and (iii) invariant with respect to translation. There are several way...
