? With the proliferation of digital cameras and self-publishing of photos, automatic detection of image orientation will become an important part of photo management systems. In th...
We present a framework for feature detection in 3-D using steerable filters. These filters can be designed to optimally respond to a particular type of feature by maximizing sever...
The appearance of a face image is severely affected by illumination conditions that hinder the automatic face recognition process. To recognize faces under varying illuminations, ...
Using the framework of higher-order active contours, we present a new quadratic continuation energy for the extraction of line networks (e.g. road, hydrographic, vascular) in the ...
An authentication watermarking technique (AWT) inserts hidden data into an image in order to detect any accidental or malicious alteration to the image. AWT usually computes, usin...

We present a novel and intuitive framework for building modular vision systems for complex tasks such as surveillance applications. Inspired by graphical models, especially factor...
Binary segmentation, a problem of extracting foreground objects from the background, often arises in medical imaging and document processing. Popular existing solutions include Ex...
Wavelet transform based image coding algorithms have the two inherent scalable features of SNR scalability and spatial (or resolution) scalability. However, fine scalability is sup...
This paper presents a new algorithm for synthesising image texture. Texture synthesis is an important process in image postproduction. Previous approaches can be classified as eit...
