Invariant representations in object recognition systems are generally obtained by pooling feature vectors over spatially local neighborhoods. But pooling is not local in the featu...

The Internet contains billions of images, freely available online. Methods for efficiently searching this incredibly rich resource are vital for a large number of applications. Th...
This paper describes a novel image transform called Multi-Scale Autoconvolution which is invariant with respect to affine transformations of the spatial image coordinates. The tra...
In this paper, we present a general framework for face modeling under varying lighting conditions. First, we show that a face lighting subspace can be constructed based on three o...

For a general purpose face recognition system one of the largest challenge is to separate useful identity related from useless variations in the image data due to nuisance variabl...
