A Scale Invariant Interest Point Detector for Discriminative Blob Detection
In this paper we present a novel scale invariant interest point detector of blobs which incorporates the idea of blob movement along the scales. This trajectory of the blobs throug...

Relative Magnitude of Gaussian Curvature from Shading Images Using Neural Network
Abstract. A new approach is proposed to recover the relative magnitude of Gaussian curvature from three shading images using neural network. Under the assumption that the test obje...

Sign of Gaussian Curvature from Eigen Plane Using Principal Components Analysis
This paper describes a new method to recover the sign of the local Gaussian curvature at each point on the visible surface of a 3-D object. Multiple (p > 3) shaded images are a...
