Abstract This paper presents a segmentation technique based on prediction and adaptive region merging. While many techniques for segmentation exist, few of them are suited for the ...
We propose a new efficient indexing scheme, called the HG-tree, to support content-based retrieval in image databases. Image content is represented by a point in a multidimensional...
We present data representations, distance measures and organizational structures for fast and efficient retrieval of similar shapes in image databases. Using the Hough Transform w...

In object recognition problems a two-stage system is usually adopted composed of a fast and simple detector and a more complex classifier. This paper studies a design of the secon...
The paper presents an evaluation of four clustering algorithms: k-means, average linkage, complete linkage, and Ward’s method, with the latter three being different hierarchical...
