In this paper we address image retrieval by similarity in multimedia databases. We discuss the generation and use of signatures computed from image content. The proposed technique...
In this paper we extend the shot transition detection component of the ViBE video database system to include gradual scene changes. ViBE Video Indexing and Browsing Environment, a...
In this paper we present a new descriptor for spatial distribution of motion activity in video sequences. We construct a histogram of areas of distinct regions (or "blobs&quo...
Color object recognition methods that are based on image retrieval algorithms can handle changes of illumination via image normalization, e.g. simple color-channel-normalization1 ...
A method for lossless compression of large binary images is proposed for applications where spatial access to the image is needed. The method utilizes the advantages of (1) variabl...
Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has become one of the most active research areas in the past few years. Many visual feature representations have been explored and many system...
