Local appearance models in the neighborhood of salient image features, together with local and/or global geometric constraints, serve as the basis for several recent and effective...
A new spectral representation called the composite model is proposed. Its key point is to decompose all spectra into a smooth background and a collection of spikes. The smooth par...
Abstract. A number of successful tone mapping operators for contrast compression have been proposed due to the need to visualize high dynamic range (HDR) images on low dynamic rang...

We present a method to learn and recognize object class models from unlabeled and unsegmented cluttered scenes in a scale invariant manner. Objects are modeled as flexible constel...
Today's Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) techniques are based on the "k-nearest neighbors" (kNN) model. They retrieve images from a single neighborhood using lo...
