In this paper a new solution for the single sample problem in low resolution face recognition is proposed. The proposed solution uses an enhanced virtual pose generation method to...
Current iris recognition systems usually regard poor quality iris images useless since defocused or partially occluded iris images may cause false acceptance. However, such a stra...
In a previous work, we proposed a new family of nonredundant geometrical image transforms using Hybrid Wavelets and Directional filter banks (HWD). In this paper we further develo...
A novel local blur estimation method is presented in the paper. Focal blur process is usually modeled as a Gaussian low-pass filtering and then the problem of blur estimation is t...
We examine some research issues in pattern recognition and image processing that have been spurred by the needs of digital libraries. Broader – and not only linguistic – conte...
