We propose an efficient multiscale image disparity estimation algorithm that estimates the local translations needed to align different regions in two images. The algorithm is bas...
Non-rigid image registration is an ill-posed yet challenging problem due to its supernormal high degree of freedoms and inherent requirement of smoothness. Graph-cuts method is a p...
We propose a novel scheme for using supervised learning for function-based classification of objects in 3D images. During the learning process, a generic multi-level hierarchical ...
This paper presents a method to extract skeletons using examples. Our method is based on the observation that many deformations in real world applications are isometric or near is...
Maritime assets such as merchant and navy ships, ports, and harbors, are targets of terrorist attacks as evidenced by the USS Cole bombing. Conventional methods of securing maritim...
