Self-localisation is an essential competence for mobile robot navigation. Due to the fundamental unreliability of dead reckoning, a robot must depend on its perception of external...
The authors propose a face recognition algorithm robust against the illumination variations, using an average face shape. The objective of this paper is two-fold: (1) to propose a...
Efficient algorithms for compressing geometric data have been widely developed in the recent years, but they are mainly designed for closed polyhedral surfaces which are manifold ...
Fingerprint enhancement is a critical step in fingerprint identification. Most of the existing enhancement algorithms are based on local ridge direction. The main drawback of thes...
Grouping algorithms based on histograms over measured image features have very successfully been applied to textured image segmentation [2, 11, 6]. However, the competing goals of...
