In this work we construct scale invariant descriptors (SIDs) without requiring the estimation of image scale; we thereby avoid scale selection which is often unreliable. Our start...
Watermark resistance to both geometric attacks and lossy compressions is a fundamental issue in the image watermarking community. In this paper, we propose a DWT (Discrete Wavelet ...
Feature histograms based on the evaluation of Haar integrals with nonlinear kernel functions were used successfully for the purpose of invariant content based image retrieval. In ...
One of the biggest challenges in non-rigid shape retrieval and comparison is the design of a shape descriptor that would maintain invariance under a wide class of transformations ...
In this paper, a new efficient word spotting methodology is presented that can be applied to historical printed documents without requiring any previous block or word segmentation...
