Search by Object Model -- finding an object inside a target image -- is a desirable and yet difficult mechanism for querying multimedia data. An added difficulty is that objects c...
The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. This function is acquired by large number of m...
The performances of face recognition systems are heavily subject to the variations in lighting. We propose a novel approach for face recognition under generic illumination conditi...
Changes in the angle of illumination incident upon a 3D surface texture can significantly alter its appearance, implying variations in the image texture. These texture variations ...
Digital camera sensors are sensitive to wavelengths ranging from the ultraviolet (200-400nm) to the near-infrared (700-100nm) bands. This range is, however, reduced because the ai...
