Abstract. Natural images consist of texture, structure and smooth regions and this makes the task of filtering challenging mainly when it aims at edge and texture preservation. In...
In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for automatic and fast detection of human faces in color images where the number, the location, the orientation and the size of the faces ...
Use of semantic content is one of the major issues which needs to be addressed for improving image retrieval effectiveness. We present a new approach to classify images based on t...
Abstract. State-of-the-art palmprint recognition algorithms achieve high accuracy based on component based texture analysis. However, they are still sensitive to local variations o...
Vision tasks, such as segmentation, grouping, recognition, can be formulated as graph partition problems. The recent literature witnessed two popular graph cut algorithms: the Ncu...
