Hue that is invariant to brightness and gamma
Hue provides a useful and intuitive cue that is used in a variety of computer vision applications. Hue is an attractive feature as it captures intrinsic information about the colo...

An Information Theoretic Approach to Statistical Shape Modelling
Statistical shape models have been used widely as a basis for segmenting and interpreting images. A major drawback of the approach is the need to establish a set of dense correspo...
