There is a growing need to extract features from point sets for purposes like model classification, matching, and exploration. We introduce a technique for segmenting a point-sam...
We propose an integral image based algorithm to extract feature covariance matrices of all possible rectangular regions within a given image. Covariance is an essential indicator ...
Visual codebook based quantization of robust appearance descriptors extracted from local image patches is an effective means of capturing image statistics for texture analysis and...
In recent years, palmprint based personal identification has been extensively explored by researchers. The success of this technology has demonstrated that the inner part of palm s...
