A general method for text localization and recognition in real-world images is presented. The proposed method is novel, as it (i) departs from a strict feed-forward pipeline and re...
In this paper a simple but effective approach for parallelization of cellular neural networks for image processing is developed. Digital gray-scale images were used to evaluate th...
Abstract. This paper explores how to predict query difficulty for contextual image retrieval. We reformulate the problem as the task of predicting how difficult to represent a quer...
We propose using stereo matching for 2-D face recognition across pose. We match one 2-D query image to one 2-D gallery image without performing 3-D reconstruction. Then the cost o...
In this paper, we investigate the impact of intensity edge maps (IEMs) on the segmentation of noisy range images. Two edgebased segmentation algorithms are considered. The first i...
