In order to resolve multi-dimentional queries, we propose a conceptual indexing based on a medical meta thesaurus (UMLS). We study the impact of this indexing compared to a words-b...
Fingerprint indexing is an efficient technique that greatly improves the performance of fingerprint based person authentication systems by reducing the number of comparison. In th...
In recent years, some computer vision algorithms such as SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) have been employed in image similarity match to perform image-based search applic...
In this paper, we introduce a novel method for depth acquisition based on refraction of light. A scene is captured twice by a fixed perspective camera, with the first image capt...
Efficient indexing is a key in content-based video retrieval solutions. In this paper we represent video sequences as traces in an appropriate low dimensional space via luminance ...
