In real-world applications of visual recognition, many factors—such as pose, illumination, or image quality—can cause a significant mismatch between the source domain on whic...
Abstract. Inspired by the early visual system of many mammalians we consider the construction of-and reconstruction from- an orientation score Uf : R2 ×S1 → C as a local orienta...
In a typical content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system, query results are a set of images sorted by feature similarities with respect to the query. However, images with high fea...
We present a new approach to learning image metrics. The main advantage of our method lies in a formulation that requires only a few pairwise examples. Apparently, based on the li...
—This paper presents a method to find salient image points in images with regular patterns based on deviations from the overall manifold structure. The two main contributions ar...
