Detection of curvilinear structures and reconstruction of their regions in gray-scale images
In this paper, we present a new method for detecting curvilinear structures and reconstructing their regions in gray-scale images. The concept of skeleton extraction is introduced...

Hyperparameter estimation for satellite image restoration using a MCMC maximum-likelihood method
The satellite image deconvolution problem is ill-posed and must be regularized. Herein, we use an edge-preserving regularization model using a ' function, involving two hyper...

Extracting moving shapes by evidence gathering
Many approaches can track objects moving in sequences of images but can su er in occlusion and noise, and often require initialisation. These factors can be handled by techniques ...

Illumination color covariant locale-based visual object retrieval
Search by Object Model -- finding an object inside a target image -- is a desirable and yet difficult mechanism for querying multimedia data. An added difficulty is that objects c...

An incremental prototype set building technique
This paper deals with the task of "nding a set of prototypes from the training set. A reduced set is obtained which is used instead of the training set when nearest neighbour...

On deformable models for visual pattern recognition
This paper reviews model-based methods for non-rigid shape recognition. These methods model, match and classify non-rigid shapes, which are generally problematic for conventationa...
