This paper presents a new Sobel-LBP, an extension of existing Local Binary Pattern (LBP), for facial image representation. The face image is filtered by Sobel operator to enhance ...
We propose textural features, which are invariant to illumination spectrum and extremely robust to illumination direction. They require only a single training image per texture an...
Many classification tasks benefit from integrating manifold learning and semi-supervised learning. By formulating the learning task in a semi-supervised manner, we propose a novel...
The small sample size problem is often encountered in pattern recognition. It results in the singularity of the within-class scatter matrix Sw in Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA...
Given the large number and complexity of Chinese characters, pattern matching based on structural decomposition and analysis is believed to be necessary and essential to off-line ...
