We show how to build hierarchical, reduced-rank representation for large stochastic matrices and use this representation to design an efficient algorithm for computing the largest...
This article describes visual functions dedicated to the extraction and recognition of planar quadrangles detected from a single camera. Extraction is based on a relaxation scheme...
In this paper we present a novel class-based segmentation method, which is guided by a stored representation of the shape of objects within a general class (such as horse images). ...
In this paper, we present a set of texture features that are locally invariant to similarity or affinity. The proposed indexing scheme relies on the topographic map, a shape-based...
We evaluate different two-dimensional non-linear deformation models for handwritten character recognition. Starting from a true two-dimensional model, we derive pseudo-two-dimensi...
