Robust extraction of text from scene images is essential for successful scene text recognition. Scene images usually have non-uniform illumination, complex background, and existen...
Most present day no-reference/blind image quality assessment (NR IQA) algorithms are distortion specific - i.e., they assume that the distortion affecting the image is known. Here...
In this paper, a novel approach to large-format image segmentation is presented, focused on usage in content-based multimedia applications. The proposed framework aims at facilita...

In this paper, we present a patch-based variational Bayesian framework of image processing using the language of factor graphs (FGs). The variable and factor nodes of FGs represen...
Nowadays color image processing is an essential issue in computer vision. Variational formulations provide a framework for color image restoration, smoothing and segmentation prob...
