We present a novel approach for discretely optimizing contours on the surface of a triangle mesh. This is achieved through the use of a minimum ratio cycle (MRC) algorithm, where ...
In this paper, we propose a framework for isolating text regions from natural scene images. The main algorithm has two functions: it generates text region candidates, and it veri...
The problem of tracking curves in dense visual clutter is challenging. Kalman filtering is inadequate because it is based on Gaussian densities which, being unimodal, cannot repre...
In this paper, we study the problem of the fast selection of video objects, as an aid for the efficient semi-automatic annotation of video programs. In a regular system, the user ...
Volume rendering is a widespread method for displaying graphical models in fields such as medical visualization or engineering. The required image information is stored in a volum...
