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...
Most of the online multimedia collections, such as picture galleries or video archives, are categorized in a fully manual process, which is very expensive and may soon be infeasib...
We propose a new method for solving structured CSPs which generalizes and improves the Cyclic-Clustering approach [4]. First, the cutset and the tree-decomposition of the constrai...
Abstract - A robust method for symbol recognition is presented that utilizes a compact signature based on a modified Hough Transform (HT) and knowledge-based hierarchical neural ne...
This paper addresses the problem of learning similaritypreserving binary codes for efficient retrieval in large-scale image collections. We propose a simple and efficient altern...
