Abstract--The emerging video coding standard MPEG-4 enables various content-based functionalities for multimedia applications. To support such functionalities, as well as to improv...
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of keypoint methods for content-based protection of digital images. These methods identify a set of “distinctive” regions (termed keypoi...
Humans can verify unknown parent-offspring and sibling pairs over unrelated subject pairs. A computational scheme to accomplish the task robustly, in the presence of challenges due...
In this paper we present an enhanced method for non-rigid registration of volumetric multi-modal images using Mutual Information (MI). Based on a hierarchical subdivision scheme, t...
We propose a fast and robust method for detecting crest lines on surfaces approximated by dense triangle meshes. The crest lines, salient surface features defined via first- and...
