In contrast to traditional Markov random field (MRF) models, we develop a Steerable Random Field (SRF) in which the field potentials are defined in terms of filter responses that ...
Appearance-based methods, based on statistical models of the pixel values in an image (region) rather than geometrical object models, are increasingly popular in computer vision. I...
In this paper we address the problem of classifying images, by exploiting global features that describe color and illumination properties, and by using the statistical learning pa...
This paper uses Support Vector Machines (SVM) to fuse multiple classifiers for an offline signature system. From the signature images, global and local features are extracted and ...
A good model of object shape is essential in applications such as segmentation, object detection, inpainting and graphics. For example, when performing segmentation, local constra...
