A feature extraction method using the chaincode representation of fingerprint ridge contours is presented for use by Automatic Fingerprint Identification Systems. The representa...
Abstract. Most existing feature-point matching algorithms rely on photometric region descriptors to distinct and match feature points in two images. In this paper, we propose an e...

In this paper, we present a graph-based image segmentation method (patch-cuts) that incorporates features and spatial relations obtained from image patches. In the first step, pat...

Abstract. We address the problem of estimating human body pose from a single image with cluttered background. We train multiple local linear regressors for estimating the 3D pose f...
We describe an unsupervised learning algorithm for extracting sparse and locally shift-invariant features. We also devise a principled procedure for learning hierarchies of invari...
