We present a novel method for inferring three-dimensional shape from a collection of defocused images. It is based on the observation that defocused images are the null-space of ce...
We propose an integral image based algorithm to extract feature covariance matrices of all possible rectangular regions within a given image. Covariance is an essential indicator ...
We present algorithms for automatic feature selection for unsupervised structure discovery from video sequences. Feature selection in this scenario is hard because of the absence ...
Signatures detect changes to the data objects. Numerous schemes a known, e.g., the popular hash based SHA-1 standard. We propose a nov scheme we call algebraic signatures. We use ...
The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. This function is acquired by large number of m...
