Global and local adaptive thresholding techniques have been shown effective on particular types of documents. None produces consistently good results on all types of documents. In...
In this paper, we present an approach of calculating visual odometry for outdoor robots equipped with a stereo rig. Instead of the typical feature matching or tracking, we use an ...
—This paper develops a framework for locally deforming either a parametric surface or hierarchical subdivision surface to match a set of positional and energy minimizing constrai...
In this paper, we present a robust system to accurately detect and localize texts in natural scene images. For text detection, a region-based method utilizing multiple features an...
Corners and curves are important image features in many vision-based applications. Corners are usually more stable and easier to match than curves,while curves contain richer info...
