This paper introduces an affine invariant shape descriptor for maximally stable extremal regions (MSER). Affine invariant feature descriptors are normally computed by sampling the...
This work introduces a novel data mining scheme, spatial pyramid mining, to discover association rules at multiple resolutions in order to identify frequent spatial configuration...
In state-of-the-art image retrieval systems, an image is
represented by a bag of visual words obtained by quantizing
high-dimensional local image descriptors, and scalable
schem...

During last years, local image descriptors have received much attention because of their efficiency for several computer vision tasks such as image retrieval, image comparison, fea...
Phase features are widely used in image processing and representation due to their stability to deformation and noise [1, 2]. However, phase singularities,where the signals vanish...
