This paper develops an analytic model for self shadowing and local illumination of rough surfaces. The surface is assumed homogeneous, isotropic, and smooth microscopically, with ...
Automatic image orientation detection for natural images is a useful, yet challenging research area. Humans use scene context and semantic object recognition to identify the corre...
This paper formulates the problem of object categorization in the discriminant analysis framework focusing on transforming visual feature data so as to make it conform to the comp...
We present a simple and universal camera calibration method. Instead of extensive setups we are exploiting the accurate angular positions of fixed stars. High precision is achieve...

We introduce a new class of distinguished regions based on detecting the most salient convex local arrangements of contours in the image. The regions are used in a similar way to ...
This paper presents a parts-based method for classifying scenes of 3D objects into a set of pre-determined object classes. Working at the part level, as opposed to the whole objec...

Relevance feedback approaches based on support vector machine (SVM) learning have been applied to significantly improve retrieval performance in content-based image retrieval (CBI...
In the paper, we study the problem of optimal matching of two generalized functions (distributions) via a diffeomorphic transformation of the ambient space. In the particular case...
In conventional tomography, the interior of an object is reconstructed from tomographic projections such as X-ray or electron microscope images. All the current reconstruction met...
