A novel algorithm is proposed to learn pattern similarities for texture image retrieval. Similar patterns in di erent texture classes are grouped into a cluster in the feature spac...
Image matching is a fundamental task of many problems in computer vision. This paper presents a novel local feature descriptor based on the gradient distance and orientation histo...
The performance of a content based image retrieval (CBIR) system is inherently constrained by the features adopted to represent the images in the database. In this paper, a new ap...
`Invariant regions' are image patches that automatically deform with changing viewpoint as to keep on covering identical physical parts of a scene. Such regions are then desc...
