Word fragments or n-grams have been widely used to perform different Natural Language Processing tasks such as information retrieval [1] [2], document categorization [3], automatic...
The focus of this work is on using texture information for searching, browsing and retrieving images from a large database. In the wavelet approaches, texture is characterized by ...
Image segmentation is not only hard and unnecessary for texture-based image retrieval, but can even be harmful. Images of either individual or multiple textures are best described...
This paper proposes a new approach for skeletonization based on the skeleton strength map (SSM) caculated by Euclidean distance transform of a binary image. After the distance tra...
