In this paper, we propose to combine formally noise and shape priors in region-based active contours. On the one hand, we use the general framework of exponential family as a prio...
We propose a novel biometrics cryptosystem where one can send and receive secure information using just the fingerprints. This cryptosystem is a judicious blend of the asymmetric ...
In order to realize accurate camera-based character recognition, machine-readable class information is embedded into each character image. Specifically, each character image is pr...
The shapes occurring in the images are important in the content-based image retrieval. In this paper we introduce a new Fourier-based descriptor for the characterization of the sh...
Histogram-based techniques are commonly used in image retrieval ranging from basic color histograms to sophisticated histograms of various local feature vectors. Our approach cons...
