In this paper, we propose to use the Colored Pattern Appearance Model (CPAM) as a content representation for video scene break detection. This model represents a scene by means of...
A new probabilistic image segmentation model based on hypothesis testing and Gibbs Random Fields is introduced. First, a probabilistic difference measure derived from a set of hyp...
The two major problems raised by a region-based image retrieval system are the automatic definition and description of regions. In this paper we first present a technique of unsup...
A lapped biorthogonal transform adapted for local directionality of an image is proposed. The proposed transform consists of overlapping basis functions and non-overlapping basis ...
A quadratic programming formulation for multiclass image segmentation is investigated. It is proved that, in the convex case, the non-negativity constraint on the recent reported ...
