We consider the problem of image segmentation using active contours through the minimization of an energy criterion involving both region and boundary functionals. These functiona...
Abstract. We present an image segmentation technique using the morphological Waterfall algorithm. Improvements in the segmentation are brought about by using improved gradients. Th...
Abstract-- We aim for content-based image retrieval of textured objects in natural scenes under varying illumination and viewing conditions. To achieve this, image retrieval is bas...
We present a spatially variant framework for correcting uneven illumination and color cast, problems commonly associated with digitized books. The core of our method is a color im...
This paper presents a segmentation scheme for images containing both smooth regions and textures. It is based on a vector-valued anisotropic diffusion on a combined color/Gabor fe...
