Precise digital 3D models of indoor environments are needed in several applications, e.g., facility management, architecture, rescue and inspection robotics. This paper presents a...
Digital visual libraries have currently available huge amounts of content in unstructured, nonindexed form. Since these collections keep growing fast, retrieving specific images i...
Many content-based retrieval systems (CBIRS) describe images using the SIFT local features because of their very robust recognition capabilities. While SIFT features proved to cop...
Automatic detection and correction of image orientation is of great importance in intelligent image processing. In this paper, we present an automatic image orientation detection ...
This paper proposes a new stopping criterion for automatic image segmentation based on region merging. The criterion is dependent on image content itself and when combined with the...
