In this paper we describe a new shape-from-shading method. We show how the parallel transport of surface normals can be used to impose curvature consistency and also to iterativel...
In real world, a scene is composed by many characteristics. Intrinsic images represent these characteristics by two components, reflectance (the albedo of each point) and shading (...
Using a lexicon can often improve character recognition under challenging conditions, such as poor image quality or unusual fonts. We propose a flexible probabilistic model for c...

In this paper, we propose a robust approach for recognition of text embedded in natural scenes. Instead of using binary information as most other OCR systems do, we extract featur...

— Nonuniform sources can be found in real world applications as uncompressed speech, text and medical images. In this paper we compare the performance of three different methods ...
