We present a new method for summarizing images for the purposes of matching and registration. We take the point of view that large, coherent regions in the image provide a concise...
This paper presents a new Sobel-LBP, an extension of existing Local Binary Pattern (LBP), for facial image representation. The face image is filtered by Sobel operator to enhance ...
Abstract. We exploit the recurrence of structures at different locations, orientations and scales in an image to perform denoising. While previous methods based on "nonlocal f...

This paper develops an analytic model for self shadowing and local illumination of rough surfaces. The surface is assumed homogeneous, isotropic, and smooth microscopically, with ...
Sequence matching techniques are effective for comparing two videos. However, existing approaches suffer from demanding computational costs and thus are not scalable for large-sca...
