Many computer vision algorithms limit their performance by ignoring the underlying 3D geometric structure in the image. We show that we can estimate the coarse geometric propertie...
A commonly used representation of a visual pattern is the set of marginal probability distributions of the output of a bank of filters (Gaussian, Laplacian, Gabor etc...). This re...
We consider the use of top-points for object retrieval. These points are based on scale-space and catastrophe theory, and are invariant under gray value scaling and offset as well ...
In this paper, we first apply the theory of wallpaper groups to natural images and extract a novel feature to depict the symmetry property of natural images. The original proposed...
The determination of the set (or window) of segments that are inductively coupled to a significant degree with a given segment plays a fundamental role in window-based techniques ...
