The performance of face recognition systems that use two-dimensional images depends on consistent conditions w.r.t. lighting, pose, and facial appearance. We are developing a face...
Many object surfaces are composed of layers of different physical substances, known as layered surfaces. These surfaces, such as patinas, water colors, and wall paintings, have mo...

Detection of saliency regions in images is useful for object based image understanding and object localization. In our work, we investigate a saliency region detection algorithm b...
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
In this paper, a novel automatic image annotation system is proposed, which integrates two sets of support vector machines (SVMs), namely the multiple instance learning (MIL)-base...
