Abstract. This paper presents a new hybrid split-and-merge image segmentation method based on computational geometry and topology using persistent homology. The algorithm uses edge...
This paper presents a unified framework for object detection,
segmentation, and classification using regions. Region
features are appealing in this context because: (1) they enco...

Abstract. The importance of spatial configuration information for object class recognition is widely recognized. Single isolated local appearance codes are often ambiguous. On the...
Using a novel data dimension reduction method proposed in statistics, we develop an appearance-based face recognition algorithm which is insensitive to large variation in lighting...
