In this paper, a novel standard variance feature is proposed for background modeling in dynamic scenes involving waving trees and ripples in water. The standard variance feature i...
This paper presents a family of techniques that we call congealing for modeling image classes from data. The idea is to start with a set of images and make them appear as similar a...
During the last two decades, Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) processors have become important architectures in embedded systems for image processing applications. The main ...
Multiscale, i.e. scale-space image analysis is a powerful framework for many image processing tasks. A fundamental issue with such scale-space techniques is the automatic selectio...
In this paper, we propose a new rotation-invariant image retrieval system based on steerable pyramids and the concept of angular alignment across scales. First, we define energy-b...
