Oriented patterns, e.g. fingerprints, consist of smoothly

This paper introduces an unsupervised color segmentation
method. The underlying idea is to segment the input
image several times, each time focussing on a different

We study the problem of estimating the illuminant's direction from images of textured surfaces. Given an isotropic, Gaussian random surface with constant albedo, Koenderink an...
In this paper, we address the problem of detecting pedestrians in crowded real-world scenes with severe overlaps. Our basic premise is that this problem is too difficult for any t...
Abstract. In this paper, we introduce background cut, a high quality and realtime foreground layer extraction algorithm. From a single video sequence with a moving foreground objec...
