— This paper presents a shape-based retrieval system and its application to infrared satellite images. A complete system is presented, from region extraction of a full hemisphere...
We present a novel approach to the problem of detection of visual similarity between a template image, and patches in a given image. The method is based on the computation of a lo...
The randomness of iris pattern makes it one of the most reliable biometric traits. On the other hand, the complex iris image structure and the various sources of intra-class varia...
The use of local features in computer vision has shown to be promising. Local features have several advantages including invariance to image transformations, independence of the ba...
Conventional subspace learning or recent feature extraction methods consider globality as the key criterion to design discriminative algorithms for image classification. We demonst...
