Statistical transformations of frontal models for non-frontal face verification
In the framework of a face verification system using local features and a Gaussian Mixture Model based classifier, we address the problem of non-frontal face verification (when on...

Deringing and deblocking dct compression artifacts with efficient shifted transforms
A new method, using weighted combinations of shifted transforms, is developed for deringing and deblocking DCT compressed color images. The method shows substantial deringing impr...

Efficient and reliable dynamic quality control for compression of compound document images
Compound images contain a mixture of natural images, text, and graphics. They need special care in the use of compression because text and graphics cannot withstand the significan...

Fast alignment of digital images using a lower bound on an entropy metric
We propose a registration algorithm based on successively refined quantization and an alignment metric derived from a minimal spanning tree entropy estimate. The metric favors edg...

Adaptive eigen-backgrounds for object detection
Most tracking algorithms detect moving objects by comparing incoming images against a reference frame. Crucially, this reference image must adapt continuously to the current light...

A set theoretic approach to target detection using spectral signature statistics
Pixels in hyperspectral images usually contain spectra from several classifiable objects, so that the recorded pixel is a mixture of the classes. Current methods estimate the prop...
