Robust extraction of 1D skeletons from grayscale 3D images
We propose novel thinning conditions for grayscale 3D images that do not rely on image thresholding or segmentation. The resulting grayscale skeletonization routine extracts a top...

White-space models for offline Arabic handwriting recognition
We propose to explicitly model white-spaces for Arabic handwriting recognition within different writing variants. Position-dependent character shapes in Arabic handwriting allow f...

Indefinite Kernel Fisher Discriminant
Indefinite kernels arise in practice, e.g. from problem-specific kernel construction. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the behavior and suitability of classifiers in the c...

Extraction of shoe-print patterns from impression evidence using Conditional Random Fields
Impression evidence in the form of shoe-prints are commonly found in crime scenes. A critical step in automatic shoe-print identification is extraction of the shoe-print pattern. ...
