A robust, invisible watermarking scheme is proposed for digital images, where the watermark is embedded using the blockbased lapped orthogonal transform (LOT). The embedding proces...
This paper introduces a shape descriptor, the soft shape context, motivated by the shape context method. Unlike the original shape context method, where each image point was hard ...
Abstract This paper presents a method for detecting a textured deformed surface in an image. It uses (wide-baseline) point matches between a template and the input image. The main ...
Objects identification in images is generally hard unless the objects are simple geometric shapes such as circles, rectangles or have very particular properties. Even simple geome...
One of the main goals in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is to incorporate shape into the process in a reliable manner. In order to overcome the difficulties of directly obta...
