The Non-Local Means (NLM) method of denoising has received considerable attention in the image processing community due to its performance, despite its simplicity. In this paper, ...
Following the phenomenological approach of gestaltists, sparse monocular depth cues such as T- and X-junctions and the local convexity are crucial to identify the shape and depth ...
In this paper, we propose a novel and simple fast block-matching algorithm (BMA), called adaptive rood pattern search (ARPS), which consists of two sequential search stages: 1) ini...
Improving coding and spatial pooling for bag-of-words based feature design have gained a lot of attention in recent works addressing object recognition and scene classification. ...
