We address the problem of describing the mean object for a set of planar shapes in the case that the considered dissimilarity measures are semi-metrics, i.e. in the case that the t...
This paper presents a new wavelet based retrieval approach based on Spherically Invariant Random Vector (SIRV) modeling of wavelet subbands. Under this multivariate model, wavelet...
Query expansion of named entities can be employed in order to increase the retrieval effectiveness. A peculiarity of named entities compared to other vocabulary terms is that they...
We present a method to improve the validity of noise and resolution measurements on digital cameras. If non-linear adaptive noise reduction is part of the signal processing in the...
A Photometric Image-Based Rendering (PIBR) concept is proposed that facilitates the generation of an image with an arbitrary illumination. Based on this concept, we aim to generat...
