Abstract. We propose a new generative model, and a new image similarity kernel based on a linked hierarchy of probabilistic segmentations. The model is used to efficiently segment ...
Abstract. There is a huge diversity of definitions of "visually meaningful" image segments, ranging from simple uniformly colored segments, textured segments, through sym...
A real-world computer vision module must deal with a wide variety of environmental parameters. Object recognition, one of the major tasks of this vision module, typically requires...
Abstract. We present a novel statistical-model-based segmentation algorithm that addresses a recurrent problem in appearance model fitting and model-based segmentation: the "s...
Image mining and interpretation is a quite complex process. In this article, we propose to model expert knowledge on objects present in an image through an ontology. This ontology ...
