In this paper, we consider the problem of color restoration using statistical priors. This is applied to color recovery for underwater images, using an energy minimization formulat...
In this paper we report on techniques for automatically learning foveal sensing strategies for an active pan-tiltzoom camera. The approach uses reinforcement learning to discover ...
