This paper proposes a new technique of figureground discrimination of color characters in scene images following two steps. The first step is temporary binarization by selecting o...
8 The training of some types of neural networks leads to separable non-linear least squares problems. These problems may be9 ill-conditioned and require special techniques. A robus...
Abstract. We propose a novel method for recognition of structured images and demonstrate it on detection of windows in facade images. Given an ability to obtain local low-level dat...
The Functions of Multiple Instances (FUMI) method for learning a target prototype from data points that are functions of target and non-target prototypes is introduced. In this pa...
Modeling data by multiple low-dimensional planes is an important problem in many applications such as computer vision and pattern recognition. In the most general setting where on...
