In this paper, we present Scene Structural Matrix (SSM) and apply it to the retrieval of landscape images. The SSM captures the overall structural characteristics of the scene by i...
Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
A new concept and algorithm are presented for noniterative robust estimation of piecewise smooth curves of maximal edge strength in small image windows – typically ¢¡£ to...
The problem of deciding whether two pixels in an image have the same real world color is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Many color spaces are used in different applicat...
We present an efficient and accurate method for duplicate video detection in a large database using video fingerprints. We have empirically chosen the Color Layout Descriptor, a c...
