We present a new histogram distance family, the Quadratic-Chi (QC). QC members are Quadratic-Form distances with a cross-bin χ2 -like normalization. The cross-bin χ2 -like normal...
With the success of local features in object recognition, feature-set representations are widely used in computer vision and related domains. Pyramid match kernel (PMK) is an effi...
This paper presents an image retrieval method based on region shape similarity. In our approach, we first segment images into primitive regions and then combine some of the primit...
The purpose is to arrive at recognition of multicolored objects invariant to a substantial change in viewpoint, object geometry and illumination. Assuming dichromatic reflectance...
In this work, we address the problem of building recognition across two camera views with large changes in scales and viewpoints. The main idea is to construct a semantically rich...
