In this paper, a novel framework for the recovery of 3D surfaces of faces from single images is developed. The underlying principle is shape from recognition, i.e. the idea that p...
In this paper, we propose a method of text retrieval from document images using a similarity measure based on an N-Gram algorithm. We directly extract image features instead of us...
Binary Partition Trees (BPTs) are a well known technique used for region-based image representation and analysis. BPTs are usually created as a result of a merging process based o...
The description of the object shape is an important characteristic of the image. In image processing and pattern recognition, several different shape descriptors are used. In huma...
A similarity measure is described that does not require the prior specification of features or the need for training sets of representative data. Instead large numbers of feature...
