The performance of a local feature based system, using Gabor-filters, and a global template matching based system, using a combination of PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and LD...
We present an optimization algorithm based on a model of bacterial chemotaxis. The original biological model is used to formulate a simple optimization algorithm, which is evaluate...
—In this paper, we propose a novel method for extracting handwritten characters from multi-language document images, which may contain various types of characters, e.g. Chinese, ...

Kernel-based trackers aggregate image features within the support of a kernel (a mask) regardless of their spatial structure. These trackers spatially fit the kernel (usually in l...
Abstract—A visual appearance of natural materials fundamentally depends on illumination conditions, which significantly complicates a real scene analysis. We propose textural fe...
