This paper gives an algorithm for detecting and reading text in natural images. The algorithm is intended for use by blind and visually impaired subjects walking through city scen...
Visual categorization problems, such as object classification or action recognition,
are increasingly often approached using a detection strategy: a classifier function
is first ...

Material classification of object surfaces from captured image data is an essential problem in computer vision. The present paper proposes a method for stably classifying the mate...
Atypical observations, which are called outliers, are one of difficulties to apply standard Gaussian density based pattern classification methods. Large number of outliers makes di...
In this paper, we propose a framework to carry out supervised classification of images containing both textured and non textured areas. Our approach is based on active contours. U...
