Classifying materials from their appearance is a challenging problem, especially if illumination and pose conditions are permitted to change: highlights and shadows caused by 3D st...

We introduce a new descriptor for images which allows the construction of efficient and compact classifiers with good accuracy on object category recognition. The descriptor is the...
Abstract. Support Vector Machines (SVM) have been applied successfully in a wide variety of fields in the last decade. The SVM problem is formulated as a convex objective function...
This paper deals with the performance evaluation of three object invariant descriptors : Hu moments, Zernike moments and Fourier-Mellin descriptors. Experiments are conducted on a...
We introduce a computational design for pattern detection based on a tree-structured network of support vector machines (SVMs). An SVM is associated with each cell in a recursive ...
