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...
Image matting aims at extracting foreground elements from an image by means of color and opacity (alpha) estimation. While a lot of progress has been made in recent years on impro...
Abstract. Linear systems and eigen-calculations on symmetric diagonally dominant matrices (SDDs) occur ubiquitously in computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning. In ...
We present our research efforts toward the deployment of 3-D sensing technology to an under-vehicle inspection robot. The 3-D sensing modality provides flexibility with ambient lig...

—A new class of pair-wise regularizers is proposed for vector-valued signals, including several new regularizers that penalize the angular difference between neighboring vectors....
