Invariant feature descriptors such as SIFT and GLOH have been demonstrated to be very robust for image matching and visual recognition. However, such descriptors are generally par...
Surface representation is needed for almost all modeling and visualization applications, but unfortunately, 3D data from a passive vision system are often insufficient for a tradi...
A family of axially symmetric mirror shapes are proposed for panoramic imaging. These shapes keep the resolution in the image invariant to changes in elevation in the scene. In ot...
In spite of the success of the standard wavelet transform (WT) in image processing, the efficiency of its representation is limited by the spatial isotropy of its basis functions ...
This paper proposes the variable block-size transform and context-based entropy coding techniques for the enhancement layer of FGS (Fine Granularity Scalable) video coding. First,...
