We present a new object segmentation method that is based on geodesic active contours with combined shape and appearance priors. It is known that using shape priors can significan...
Spatial region (image) segmentation is a fundamental step for many computer vision applications. Although many methods have been proposed, less work has been done in developing sui...

The paper proposes a new parallel connected-component-tree construction algorithm based on line independent building and progressive merging of partial 1-D trees. Two parallelizati...

Multi-view scene reconstruction from multiple uncalibrated images can be solved by two stages of processing: first, a sparse reconstruction using Structure From Motion (SFM), and ...

We propose a novel approach for estimating a depth-map from a pair of rectified stereo images degraded by blur and contrast change. At each location in image space, information is...
Abstract. Extrema of curvature are useful key points for different image analysis tasks. Indeed, polygonal approximation or arc decomposition methods used often these points to ini...
Scientific advances in the development of video processing algorithms now allow various distributed and collaborative vision-based applications. However, the lack of recognised st...
Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) is a promising method for detecting the number of clusters. It is often used in model-based clustering in which a decisive first local maximum ...
Within a camera network, the contribution of a camera to the observations of a scene depends on its viewpoint and on the scene configuration. This is a dynamic property, as the sc...
Biometrics has become more and more important in security applications. In comparison with many other biometric features, iris recognition has very high recognition accuracy. Succ...
