This paper presents a new framework for shape modeling and analysis. A shape instance is described by a curvature-based shape descriptor. A Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) is ...
Image annotation has been an active research topic in recent years due to its potentially large impact on both image understanding and Web image search. In this paper, we target a...

Extraction of stable local invariant features is very important in many computer vision applications, such as image matching, object recognition and image retrieval. Most existing...
We present a component-based face descriptor with LDA (Linear Discriminant Analysis) and a simple pose classification. Our algorithm has been developed to deal with face image ret...
