Most illuminant estimation algorithms worked on point light sources or directional light sources. Little attempt has been made, however, to estimate area light sources. In this pa...
Recent empirical work has shown that combining predictors can lead to significant reduction in generalization error. The individual predictors (weak learners) can be very simple, ...
This work is about scene interpretation in the sense of detecting and localizing instances from multiple object classes. We concentrate on object indexing: generate an over-comple...
The morphological top-hat operator for greyscale images is part of the basic toolbox of mathematical morphology operators. We discuss two ways of generalising the tophat operator ...
While scanning pages from a thick, bound book, there are two sources of distortion in the document images: 1) shade along the book `spine', and 2) warping of the book surface...
