One of the attractive feature of Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) is the so-called "topological preservation property": observations that are close to each other in the input s...
We propose a robust face alignment algorithm with a novel discriminative local texture model. Different from the conventional descriptive PCA local texture model in ASM, classifie...

To operate successfully in indoor environments, mobile robots must be able to localize themselves. Most current localization algorithms lack flexibility, autonomy, and often optim...
Abstract. Despite the ubiquitous use of range images in various computer vision applications, little has been investigated about the size variation of the local geometric structure...
In many real-world object recognition applications, texture plays a very important role. Much research has gone into texture-based segmentation methods, which focus on finding the...
