Extraction of stable local invariant features is very important in many computer vision applications, such as image matching, object recognition and image retrieval. Most existing...
— Optimal component analysis (OCA) uses a stochastic gradient optimization process to find optimal representations for general criteria and shows good performance in object reco...
Skeletons are important shape descriptors in object representation and recognition. Typically, skeletons of volumetric models are computed using iterative thinning. However, tradi...
This paper presents a novel approach that represents an image or a set of images using a nonorthogonal binary subspace (NBS) spanned by boxlike base vectors. These base vectors po...
— This paper proposes numerical algorithms for reducing the computational cost of semi-supervised and active learning procedures for visually guided mobile robots from O(M3 ) to ...
