Rotation-invariant and scale-invariant Gabor features for texture image retrieval
Conventional Gabor representation and its extracted features often yield a fairly poor performance in retrieving the rotated and scaled versions of the texture image under query. ...

Outdoor recognition at a distance by fusing gait and face
We explore the possibility of using both face and gait in enhancing human recognition at a distance performance in outdoor conditions. Although the individual performance of gait ...

Evaluation of a convex relaxation to a quadratic assignment matching approach for relational object views
We introduce a convex relaxation approach for the quadratic assignment problem to the field of computer vision. Due to convexity, a favourable property of this approach is the ab...

Analysis of the rubberband algorithm
We consider simple cube-curves in the orthogonal 3D grid of cells. The union of all cells contained in such a curve (also called the tube of this curve) is a polyhedrally bounded s...
