Today's Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) techniques are based on the "k-nearest neighbors" (kNN) model. They retrieve images from a single neighborhood using lo...
A commonly encountered problem when creating 3D models of large real scenes is unnatural color texture fusion. Due to variations in lighting and camera settings (both manual and a...

This paper describes how a visual system can automatically define features of interest from the observation of a large enough number of natural images. The principle complements t...
—In this paper, we present a robust and accurate algorithm for interactive image segmentation. The level set method is clearly advantageous for image objects with a complex topol...
In this paper, we present an approach to multi-view image-based 3D reconstruction by statistically inversing the ray-tracing based image generation process. The proposed algorithm...
