This paper presents three reconfigurable computing approaches for a Shape-Adaptive Template Matching (SA-TM) method to retrieve arbitrarily shaped objects within images or video f...
Recent works in object recognition often use visual words, i.e. vector quantized local descriptors extracted from the images. In this paper we present a novel method to build such ...
Surveillance systems have long been used to monitor industrial processes and are becoming increasingly popular in public health and anti-terrorism applications. Most early detecti...
End-to-end distortion estimation plays an important role in error-resilient video coding. The intuitive method is to simulate the decoding process many times at the encoder, as use...
We address the problem of generating quality surface triangle meshes from 3D point clouds sampled on piecewise smooth surfaces. Using a feature detection process based on the cova...
