Iris pattern is commonly regarded as a kind of phenotypic feature without relation to genes. In our previous work, we argued that iris texture is race related, and its genetic inf...
Image matting is the task of estimating a fore- and background
layer from a single image. To solve this ill posed
problem, an accurate modeling of the scene’s appearance

This paper investigates the problem of learning the visual semantics of keyword categories for automatic image annotation. Supervised learning algorithms which learn only a single ...
Previous studies have demonstrated that the appearance of an object under varying illumination conditions can be represented by a low-dimensional linear subspace. A set of basis i...
Shading analysis of an object under near lighting is not an easy task, because the direction and distance of the light source vary over the surface of the object. Observing a small...
