Text segmentation in color images using tensor voting
In natural scene, text elements are corrupted by many types of noise, such as streaks, highlights, or cracks. These effects make the clean and automatic segmentation very difficu...

A variation on SVD based image compression
We present a variation to the well studied SVD based image compression technique. Our variation can be viewed as a preprocessing step in which the input image is permuted as per a...

Vector quantization and fuzzy ranks for image reconstruction
The problem of clustering is often addressed with techniques based on a Voronoi partition of the data space. Vector quantization is based on a similar principle, but it is a diffe...

Non-rigid structure from motion using ranklet-based tracking and non-linear optimization
In this paper, we address the problem of estimating the 3D structure and motion of a deformable object given a set of image features tracked automatically throughout a video seque...

Image distance functions for manifold learning
Many natural image sets are samples of a low-dimensional manifold in the space of all possible images. When the image data set is not a linear combination of a small number of bas...

Evolutionary approach to inverse planning in coplanar radiotherapy
A unified evolutionary approach to coplanar radiotherapy inverse planning is proposed. It consists of a genetic algorithm-based framework that solves with little modification tr...

Outlier rejection in high-dimensional deformable models
Deformable model tracking is a powerful methodology that allows us to track the evolution of high-dimensional parameter vectors from uncalibrated monocular video sequences. The co...

Modelling and segmentation of colour images in polar representations
The suitability of polar representation for quantitative image processing tasks is investigated. The classical colour polar-based representations (HLS, HSV, etc.) lead to brightne...
