With the large and increasing amount of visual information available in digital libraries and the Web, efficient and robust systems for image retrieval are urgently needed. In thi...
—We introduce a simple image descriptor referred to as the image signature. We show, within the theoretical framework of sparse signal mixing, that this quantity spatially approx...
Most image and video compression algorithms that have been proposed to improve picture quality relative to compression efficiency have either been designed based on objective crite...
Attentive robots, inspired by human-like vision – are required to have visual systems with fovea-periphery distinction and saccadic motion capability. Thus, each frame in the inc...
To manage the massive growth of sport videos, we need to summarize the contents into a more compact and interesting representation. Unlike previous work which summarized either hi...
