In this paper we develop a novel contrast-invariant appearance detection model. The goal is to classify object-specific images (e.g. face images) from generic background patches. ...
We have developed a generic ontology of objects, and a knowledge base of everyday physical objects. Objects are represented as assemblies of functional features and their spatial r...
Intravascular ultrasound images represent a unique tool to analyze the morphology of arteries and vessels (plaques, etc). The poor quality of these images makes traditional segmen...
— Matching images with large geometric and iconic changes (e.g. faces under different poses and facial expressions) is an open research problem in computer vision. There are two ...
Detection of saliency regions in images is useful for object based image understanding and object localization. In our work, we investigate a saliency region detection algorithm b...
