Condensing Image Databases when Retrieval is Based on Non-Metric Distances
One of the key problems in appearance-based vision is understanding how to use a set of labeled images to classify new images. Classification systems that can model human performa...

Real-Time Face Recognition Using Feature Combination
We present an experimental setup for real-time face identification in a cluttered scene. Color images of people are recorded with a static camera. A rough face detection is perfor...

Robust Watermarking for Images Based on Color Manipulation
Abstract. In this paper we present a new efficient watermarking scheme for images. The basic idea of our method is to alter the colors of the given image in a suitable but imperce...

Camera Break Detection by Partitioning of 2D Spatio-Temporal Images in MPEG Domain
In this paper, we propose a new approach to detect camera cuts and wipes. The approach projects a video into two images representing the spatio-tempoml continuity of a video life....
