In this paper a complete OCR methodology for recognizing historical documents, either printed or handwritten without any knowledge of the font, is presented. This methodology cons...
The standard approach to the classification of objects is to consider the examples as independent and identically distributed (iid). In many real world settings, however, this ass...
Foveal or spatially-variant image representations are important components of active vision systems. Log-polar sampling is a particularly powerful example as a result of the simpl...
Existing methods for segmentation by edgel linking are based on heuristics and give no guarantee for a topologically correct result. In this paper, we propose an edgel linking algo...
