Thispaper presents a new hybrid range image segmentation approach. Two separate techniques are applied consecutively. First, iin edge based segmentation technique extracts the edg...
The signal-dependent rank order mean (SD-ROM) ?lter is effective at removing high levels of impulse noise from 2D scalar-valued signals. Excellent results have been presented for ...
We introduce a sparse image representation that takes advantage of the geometrical regularity of edges in images. A new class of one-dimensional wavelet orthonormal bases, called ...
There are three basic segmentation schemes for compound image compression: object-based, layer-based, and block-based. This work discusses the relative advantages of each scheme a...
This paper describes e cient and optimal encoding and representation of object contours. Contours are approximated by connected second-order spline segments, each de ned by three ...
