There has recently been significant interest in using repions based on abstractions of Blum's skeleton into a graph, for qualitative shape matching. The application of these ...
In order to work well, many computer vision algorithms require that their parameters be adjusted according to the image noise level, making it an important quantity to estimate. W...

In this work we construct scale invariant descriptors (SIDs) without requiring the estimation of image scale; we thereby avoid scale selection which is often unreliable. Our start...
Given an unstructured collection of captioned images of cluttered scenes featuring a variety of objects, our goal is to learn both the names and appearances of the objects. Only a...

Conveying shape using feature lines is an important visualization tool in visual computing. The existing feature lines (e.g., ridges, valleys, silhouettes, suggestive contours, etc...
