We propose a new approach called "appearance clustering" for scene analysis. The key idea in this approach is that the scene points can be clustered according to their s...
— Texture analysis plays an increasingly important role in computer vision. Since the textural properties of images appear to carry useful information for discrimination purposes...
We present a method to detect characters on signboards in natural scene images. For many applications, both classifier with small computational cost and the efficient feature set,...
Abstract. Despite the ubiquitous use of range images in various computer vision applications, little has been investigated about the size variation of the local geometric structure...
Various problems in Computer Vision become difficult due to a strong influence of lighting on the images of an object. Recent work showed analytically that the set of all images of...
