PCA-SIFT is an extension to SIFT which aims to reduce SIFT’s high dimensionality (128 dimensions) by applying PCA to the gradient image patches. However PCA is not a discriminati...
Recognition of 3D objects from different viewpoints is a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a new method to recognize 3D range images by matching local surface descripto...
Abstract. We propose a new generative model, and a new image similarity kernel based on a linked hierarchy of probabilistic segmentations. The model is used to efficiently segment ...
A new feature descriptor is presented for object and scene recognition. The new approach, called CDIKP, uniquely combines the scale-invariant feature detection with a robust proje...
With the success of local features in object recognition, feature-set representations are widely used in computer vision and related domains. Pyramid match kernel (PMK) is an effi...
