In this paper, we propose a salient object extraction method using the contrast map and salient points for object-based image retrieval. In order to make the contrast map, we gener...
We propose a novel algorithm to compute Voronoi diagrams of order k in arbitrary 2D and 3D domains. The algorithm is based on a fast ordered propagation distance transformation ca...
"Three dimensional scene analysis has reached a turning point. Though researchers have been investigating object recognition and scene understanding since the late 1960’s, a...
The dichromatic reflectance model introduced by Shafer [16] predicts that the colour signals of most materials fall on a plane spanned by a vector due to the material and a vector...
Graphics detection and recognition are fundamental research problems in document image analysis and retrieval. As one of the most pervasive graphical elements in business and gove...
