This work presents a new approach to contour representation and coding. It consists of an improved fitting of high-degree (4th to 18th ) implicit polynomials (IPs) to the contour,...
In statistical pattern recognition, parameters of distributions are usually estimated from training samples. It is well known that shortage of training samples causes estimation e...
Perceptual experiments indicate that corners and curvature are very important features in the process of recognition. This paper presents a new method to detect rotational symmetr...
Invariance is an important aspect in image object recognition. We present results obtained with an extended tangent distance incorporated in a kernel density based Bayesian classi...
In this paper, a novel algorithm for creating virtual indoor environments is described. First, a panoramic mosaic is generated from a series of photos taken with a camera rotates ...
