The performance of face recognition is greatly affected by illumination changes because intra-person variation of the captured images under different lighting conditions can be mu...
Pictorial Structures (PS) define a probabilistic model of 2D articulated objects in images. Typical PS models assume an object can be represented by a set of rigid parts connecte...
The standard graph cut technique is a robust method for globally optimal image segmentations. However, because of its global nature, it is prone to capture outlying areas similar ...
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is an excellent tool for unsupervised parts-based learning, but proves to be ineffective when parts of a whole follow a specific pattern. ...
Given an arbitrary image, our goal is to segment all distinct
texture subimages. This is done by discovering distinct,
cohesive groups of spatially repeating patterns, called tex...
