A two-stage cascaded classification approach with an optimal candidate selection scheme is proposed to recognize places using images taken by camera phones. An optimal acceptance ...
In this paper, we study the trade-off in steganography between the number of embedding changes and their amplitude. We assume that each element of the cover image is assigned a sc...
Active Appearance Model (AAM) represents the shape and appearance of an object via two low-dimensional subspaces, one for shape and one for appearance. AAM for facial images is cu...
Extractors (defined by Nisan and Zuckerman) are procedures that use a small number of truly random bits (called the seed) to extract many (almost) truly random bits from arbitrar...
We propose a novel approach to improve the distinctiveness of local image features without significantly affecting their robustness with respect to image deformations. Local image...
