We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels), embedd...

We propose a method for estimating inherent surface color robustly against image noises from two registered images taken under different outdoor illuminations. We formulate the es...
We apply the concept of natural gradients to deformable registration. The motivation stems from the lack of physical interpretation for gradients of image-based difference measure...
Many different automatic color correction approaches have been proposed by different research communities in the past decade. However, these approaches are seldom compared, so the...
In this paper, based on manifold harmonics, we propose a novel framework for 3D shape similarity comparison and partial matching. First, we propose a novel symmetric meanvalue rep...

Watching a reflection in a glass window, one can often observe a multi-layered image consisting of a frontsurface reflection from the glass and a rear-surface reflection through t...
Though modern Visual Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (vSLAM) systems are capable of localising robustly and efficiently even in the case of a monocular camera, the maps prod...

We investigate how to discover all common visual patterns within two sets of feature points. Common visual patterns generally share similar local features as well as similar spati...
Surface registration is widely used in machine vision and medical imaging, where 1-1 correspondences between surfaces are computed to study their variations. Surface maps are usua...

This paper shows that the performance of a binary classifier can be significantly improved by the processing of structured unlabeled data, i.e. data are structured if knowing the ...
