All surfaces can be classified by the conformal equivalence
relation. Conformal invariants, which are shape indices

The Internet contains billions of images, freely available online. Methods for efficiently searching this incredibly rich resource are vital for a large number of applications. Th...
We propose semantic texton forests, efficient and powerful new low-level features. These are ensembles of decision trees that act directly on image pixels, and therefore do not ne...
