Abstract. We study piecewise decomposition methods for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs) for which all constraint functions are linear. At each iteration o...
— In this work, we present novel warping algorithms for full 2D pixel-grid deformations for face recognition. Due to high variation in face appearance, face recognition is consid...

PCA-SIFT is an extension to SIFT which aims to reduce SIFT’s high dimensionality (128 dimensions) by applying PCA to the gradient image patches. However PCA is not a discriminati...
