— A stereo pair of cameras attached to a robot will inevitably yield images with different contrast. Even if we assume that the camera hardware is identical, due to slightly diff...
Global region-based active contours, like the Chan-Vese model, often make strong assumptions on the intensity distributions of the searched object and background, preventing their ...
This paper presents a method for automatic segmentation of bone from volumetric computed tomography (CT) data. Due to osteoporosis, which degenerates the bone density and hence de...
Image matching is a fundamental task of many problems in computer vision. This paper presents a novel local feature descriptor based on the gradient distance and orientation histo...
Color processing imposes a new constraint on stereo vision algorithms: The assumption of constant color on object surfaces used to align local correlation windows with object bound...
