In this paper, we propose a new rotation-invariant image retrieval system based on steerable pyramids and the concept of angular alignment across scales. First, we define energy-b...
In this paper, we develop a new approach for texture classification independent of affine transforms. Based on spectral representation of texture images under affine transform, an...
A completely automatic face recognition system is presented. The method works on color and gray level images: after having localized the face and the facial features, it determine...

An efficient approach to shape matching in digital images is presented. The method, called Weighted Edge Potential Function, is a significant improvement of the EPF similarity meas...
