In this paper, we propose an efficient text detection method based on the Laplacian operator. The maximum gradient difference value is computed for each pixel in the Laplacian-fil...

When computing descriptors of image data, the type of information that can be extracted may be strongly dependent on the scales at which the image operators are applied. This arti...
Statistics of ‘natural images’ provides useful priors for solving under-constrained problems in Computer Vision. Such statistics is usually obtained from large collections of ...
Compressive sampling (CS) is aimed at acquiring a signal or image from data which is deemed insufficient by Nyquist/Shannon sampling theorem. Its main idea is to recover a signal ...
—Inspired by Weber’s Law, this paper proposes a simple, yet very powerful and robust local descriptor, called the Weber Local Descriptor (WLD). It is based on the fact that hum...
