Web image indexing by using associated texts
In order to index Web images, the whole associated texts are partitioned into a sequence of text blocks, then the local relevance of a term to the corresponding image is calculated...

Color image decomposition and restoration
Meyer has recently introduced an image decomposition model to split an image into two components: a geometrical component and a texture (oscillatory) component. Inspired by his wo...

Constructing a SenseCam visual diary as a media process
The SenseCam is a small wearable personal device which automatically captures up to 2,500 images per day. This yields a very large personal collection of images, or in a sense a l...

Fast Surface Segmentation Guided by User Input Using Implicit Extension of Minimal Paths
We introduce a novel implicit approach for single object segmentation in 3D images. The boundary surface of this object is assumed to contain two or more known curves (the constrai...

Topological map learning from outdoor image sequences
We propose an approach to building topological maps of environments based on image sequences. The central idea is to use manifold constraints to find representative feature protot...
