Contour Detection by Multiresolution Surround Inhibition
In natural images, luminance changes occur both on object contours and on textures. Often, the latter are stronger than the former, thus standard edge detectors fail in isolating ...

Modulation Domain Features for Discriminating Infrared Targets and Backgrounds
For the first time, we compute modulation domain features for infrared targets and backgrounds, including dominant modulations that characterize the local texture contrast, orient...
