A man-made environment is characterized by many parallel lines and orthogonal edges. In this article, a new method for detecting the three mutually orthogonal directions of such a...
This paper addresses the difficult problem of symbol spotting for graphic documents. We propose an approach where each graphic document is indexed as a text document by using the ...
We propose a new approach to estimate the joint spectral radius and the joint spectral subradius of an arbitrary set of matrices. We first restrict our attention to matrices that ...
"There is a very large literature on the theoretical underpinnings of the
wavelet transform. However, theory must be complemented with a significant
amount of practical work...
In this paper, we describe a new region-based approach to active contours for segmenting images composed of two or three types of regions characterizable by a given statistic. The...
