The appearance of non-rigid objects detected and tracked in video streams is highly variable and therefore makes the identification of similar objects very complex. Furthermore, i...
An index is devised to support position-independent search for images containing quartets of icons. Point quartets exist that do not unambiguously map to quadrilaterals, however, ...
We propose a method to detect objects and patterns in textures on general surfaces. Our approach applies the Chan?Vese variational model for active contours without edges to the p...
A fundamental problem when computing statistical shape models is the determination of correspondences between the instances of the associated data set. Often, homologies between po...

A generalized image model (GIM) is presented. Images are represented as sets of four-dimensional (4D) sites combining position and intensity information, as well as their associat...
