Recognizing characters in a scene image taken by a digital camera has been studied for decades. However, it is still a challenging problem to achieve high accuracy. In this paper,...
Spectrum normalization is a process shared by two saliency detection methods, Spectral Residual (SR) and Phase Fourier Transform (PFT). In this paper, we point out that the essence...
We investigate the problem of pedestrian detection in
still images. Sliding window classifiers, notably using the
Histogram-of-Gradient (HOG) features proposed by Dalal
and Trig...
We address the automatic classification of scanned input media in order to improve color calibration. Since scanner responses vary significantly according to the type of input, a ...
: Despite the efforts to reduce the semantic gap between user perception of similarity and featurebased representation of images, user interaction is essential to improve retrieval...
