In object recognition problems a two-stage system is usually adopted composed of a fast and simple detector and a more complex classifier. This paper studies a design of the secon...
Distributed hash tables (DHTs), used in a number of structured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems provide efficient mechanisms for resource placement and location. A key distinguishing fe...

This paper deals with a new interest points detector. Unlike most standard detectors which concentrate on the local shape of the signal, the main objective of this new operator is...
Abstract. Shape features applied to object recognition has been actively studied since the beginning of the field in 1950s and remain a viable alternative to appearance based metho...
Bag-of-features (BoF) deriving from local keypoints has recently appeared promising for object and scene classification. Whether BoF can naturally survive the challenges such as ...
