Abstract. We present a novel algorithm for approximating the parameters of a multivariate t-distribution. At the expense of a slightly decreased accuracy in the estimates, the prop...
In this paper we present a method for the retrieval of images in terms of perceptual similarity. Local color information is added to the shape context descriptor in order to obtain...
Handwritten text is generally captured through two main modalities: off-line and on-line. Smart approaches to handwritten text recognition (HTR) may take advantage of both modalit...
This paper presents a novel illumination technique for image processing in environmentswhich are characterized by large intensity fluctuations and hence a high optical dynamic ra...
The design of inference algorithms for discrete-valued Markov Random Fields constitutes an ongoing research topic in computer vision. Large state-spaces, none-submodular energy-fun...
