— The operation of V1 simple cells in primates has been traditionally modelled with linear models resembling Gabor filters, whereas the functionality of subsequent visual cortic...
Abstract. Modeling the statistical structure of natural images is interesting for reasons related to neuroscience as well as engineering. Currently, this modeling relies heavily on...
This paper gives an algorithm for detecting and reading text in natural images. The algorithm is intended for use by blind and visually impaired subjects walking through city scen...
Various relevance feedback algorithms have been proposed in recent years in the area of content-based image retrieval. This paper gives a brief review and analysis on existing tec...
We consider a hierarchical two-layer model of natural signals in which both layers are learned from the data. Estimation is accomplished by Score Matching, a recently proposed est...
