In this paper we propose a domain partitioning RankBoost approach for face recognition. This method uses Local Gabor Binary Pattern Histogram (LGBPH) features for face representat...
1 The compression efficiency of Distributed Video-Coding2 (DVC) suffers from the necessity of transmitting a large num-3 ber of key-frames which are intra-coded. This paper describ...
In this effort, we propose a new image fusion technique, utilizing Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), for improved face recognition. EMD is a non-parametric datadriven analysis t...
