We propose a novel face image similarity measure based on Hausdorff distance (HD). In contrast to conventional HD-based measures, which are generally applied in the image space (s...
Grating cells were discovered in the V1 and V2 areas of the monkey visual cortex by von der Heydt et al. (1992). These cells responded vigorously to grating patterns of appropriate...

In this paper, we raise important issues on scalability and the required degree of supervision of existing Mahalanobis metric learning methods. Often rather tedious optimization p...
We present a new technique for extracting local features from images of architectural scenes, based on detecting and representing local symmetries. These new features are motivate...
The 3D model reconstruction of buildings from uncalibrated photographs allows new useful Computer Graphics and Computer Vision applications. In this paper we survey some solutions...
