Two fast illumination invariant image retrieval methods for scenes comprising textured objects with variable illumination are introduced. Both methods are based on texture gradien...
Image mosaics are useful for a variety of tasks in vision and computer graphics. A particularly convenient way to generate mosaics is by `stitching' together many ordinary ph...
This paper considers a recently proposed method for unsupervised learning and dimensionality reduction, locally linear embedding (LLE). LLE computes a compact representation of hi...
We describe a scalable approach to 3D smooth object retrieval which searches for and localizes all the occurrences of a user outlined object in a dataset of images in real time. T...
Localizing objects in images is a difficult task and represents the first step to the solution of the object recognition problem. This paper presents a novel approach to the local...
