Many recent computational photography techniques decompose an image into a piecewise smooth base layer, containing large scale variations in intensity, and a residual detail layer...
The widespread availability of digital cameras and ubiquitous Internet access have facilitated the creation of massive image collections. These collections can be highly interconn...
In this paper, we propose a new rotation-invariant image retrieval system based on steerable pyramids and the concept of angular alignment across scales. First, we define energy-b...
Recently, maximization mutual information (MMI) of image intensities has been proposed as a new matching criterion for automated multimodality image registration. However, the suc...
The ImageCLEF 2006 medical automatic annotation task encompasses 11,000 images from 116 categories, compared to 57 categories for 10,000 images of the similar task in 2005. As a b...
