On the Application of Invariant Image Parameters to Fractal Encoding of Bi-Level Images
Abstract. Fractal image compression is an engaging and worthwhile technology that may be successfully applied to still image coding, especially at high compression ratios. Unfortun...

Pixel-based and region-based image fusion schemes using ICA bases
The task of enhancing the perception of a scene by combining information captured by different sensors is usually known as image fusion. The pyramid decomposition and the Dual-Tr...

Keypics: Free-Hand Drawn Iconic Keywords
— We propose an iconic indexing of images to be exposed on the Web. This should be accomplished by “Keypics”, i.e. auxiliary, simplified pictures referring to the geometrica...

A new face recognition method based on SVD perturbation for single example image per person
At present, there are many methods for frontal view face recognition. However, few of them can work well when only one example image per class is available. In this paper, we pres...

Automatic Panoramic Image Stitching using Invariant Features
This paper concerns the problem of fully automated panoramic image stitching. Though the 1D problem (single axis of rotation) is well studied, 2D or multi-row stitching is more di...

Application of the Fisher-Rao Metric to Ellipse Detection
The parameter space for the ellipses in a two dimensional image is a five dimensional manifold, where each point of the manifold corresponds to an ellipse in the image. The parame...

Semantic Modeling of Natural Scenes for Content-Based Image Retrieval
In this paper, we present a novel image representation that renders it possible to access natural scenes by local semantic description. Our work is motivated by the continuing effo...

Learning to reduce the semantic gap in web image retrieval and annotation
We study in this paper the problem of bridging the semantic gap between low-level image features and high-level semantic concepts, which is the key hindrance in content-based imag...

Restoration of Chopped and Nodded Images by Framelets
In infrared astronomy, an observed image from a chop and nod process can be considered as the result of passing the original image through a highpass filter. Here we propose a rest...
