Shape-from-shading methods recover 3-D shape from intensity images. Often, Lambertian reflectance is assumed. The Lambertian assumption is attractive because it simplifies the a...

Image decomposition consists of splitting an image into two or more components. One component is piecewise smooth and models object shapes. Another component consists of the textu...
The goal of image categorization is to classify a collection of unlabeled images into a set of predefined classes to support semantic-level image retrieval. The distance measures ...
In this paper we propose a novel algorithm for 3D shape searching based on the visual similarity by cutting the object into sections. This method rectifies some of the shortcomin...
We propose to use approximations of shape metrics, such as the Hausdorff distance, to define similarity measures between shapes. Our approximations being continuous and different...
