Abstract--The emerging video coding standard MPEG-4 enables various content-based functionalities for multimedia applications. To support such functionalities, as well as to improv...
We present a multi-scale algorithm for mapping a texture defined by an input image onto an arbitrary surface. It avoids the generation and storage of a new, specific texture. The ...
Abstract. Several sources of uncertainties in shape boundaries in medical images have motivated the use of probabilistic labeling approaches. Although it is well-known that the sam...
Local Binary Pattern (LBP) has been widely used in texture classification because of its simplicity and computational efficiency. Traditional LBP codes the sign of the local diffe...
When comparing 2D shapes, a key issue is their normalization. Translation and scale are easily taken care of by removing the mean and normalizing the energy. However, defining and...
