Curve evolution implementations [3][23] [25] of the Mumford-Shah functional [16] are of broad interest in image segmentation. These implementations, however, have initialization p...

Two fast illumination invariant image retrieval methods for scenes comprising textured objects with variable illumination are introduced. Both methods are based on texture gradien...
Texture is a fundamental feature which provides significant information for image classification, and is an important content used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. ...
We introduce a new texture representation that combines standard sampling, to be bilinearly interpolated in smoothly varying regions, with customizable discontinuities, to model s...
We propose a new method for greatly accelerating the computation of complex, detailed shadows in a radiosity solution. Radiosity is computed using a "standard" hierarchi...
