The Impact of Color on Bag-Of-Words Based Object Recognition
In recent years several works have aimed at exploiting color information in order to improve the bag-ofwords based image representation. There are two stages in which color inform...

Joint Image GMM and Shading MAP Estimation
We consider a simple statistical model of the image, in which the image is represented as a sum of two parts: one part is explained by an i.i.d. color Gaussian mixture and the oth...

A New Symmetry Based on Proximity of Wavelet-Moments for Text Frame Classification in Video
This paper proposes the use of a new symmetry property based on proximity of the median moments in the wavelet domain. The method divides a given frame into 16 equally sized blocks...

Typographical Features for Scene Text Recognition
Scene text images feature an abundance of font style variety but a dearth of data in any given query. Recognition methods must be robust to this variety or adapt to the query data...
