When computing descriptors of image data, the type of information that can be extracted may be strongly dependent on the scales at which the image operators are applied. This arti...
The fact that objects in the world appear in different ways depending on the scale of observation has important implications if one aims at describing them. It shows that the not...
Although the scale of isotropic visual elements such as blobs and interest points, e.g. SIFT[12], has been well studied and adopted in various applications, how to determine the s...

Abstract. Some recent works have addressed the object recognition problem by representing objects as the composition of independent image parts, where each part is modeled with “...
We devise a statistical framework for edge detection by performing a statistical analysis of zero crossings of the second derivative of an image. This analysis enables us to estim...
