This paper presents a new Geometric Active Contour (GAC) model based on Lennard-Jones (L-J) force field, which is inspired by the theory of intermolecular interaction. It is diff...
In this paper, we propose a novel learned visual codebook (LVC) for 3D face recognition. In our method, we first extract intrinsic discriminative information embedded in 3D faces...
Organizing digital images into semantic categories is imperative for effective browsing and retrieval. In large image collections, an efficient algorithm is crucial to quickly cat...
