Face recognition under unconstrained illuminations (FR/I) received extensive study because of the existence of illumination subspace. [2] presented a study on the comparison betwe...
Shape symmetry is an important cue for image understanding. In the absence of more detailed prior shape information, segmentation can be significantly facilitated by symmetry. How...
A new hierarchical Bayesian model is proposed for image segmentation based on Gaussian mixture models (GMM) with a prior enforcing spatial smoothness. According to this prior, the...

Parametric models of shape and texture such as Active Appearance Models (AAMs) are diverse tools for deformable object appearance modeling and have found important applications in...
The state of the art in visual object retrieval from large databases is achieved by systems that are inspired by text retrieval. A key component of these approaches is that local ...
