This paper presents a formal framework for designing search algorithms which can identify target images by the spatial distribution of color, edge and texture attributes. The fram...
If an image should be retrieved by its subregions from a large image database, an immense number of possible queries will appear. Therefore, the index which encodes the spatial in...
In this paper, we present a new and robust shape descriptor, which can be efficiently used to quickly prune a search for similar shapes in a large image database. The proposed sha...
Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
This paper presents a new use of the Curvelet transform as a multiscale method for indexing linear singularities and curved handwritten shapes in documents images. As it belongs t...
