Abstract. Inspired by the early visual system of many mammalians we consider the construction of-and reconstruction from- an orientation score Uf : R2 ×S1 → C as a local orienta...
Mean-Shift tracking gained a lot of popularity in computer vision community. This is due to its simplicity and robustness. However, the original formulation does not estimate the o...
: Fingerprint image enhancement is a common and critical step in fingerprint recognition systems. To enhance the images, most of the existing enhancement algorithms use filtering t...
Steerable filters have been used to analyze local orientation patterns in imagery. Such filters are typically based on directional derivatives, whose symmetry produces orientati...
This paper presents a segmentation technique to decompose automatically a panoramic range image into a set of planar projections. It consists of three stages. Firstly, two orthogo...
