In this paper, we address a ranking problem in web image retrieval. Due to the growing availability of web images, comprehensive retrieval of web images has been expected. Conventi...
A novel method is introduced to force a geometric-based snake be more tolerant towards weak edges and noise in images. The method integrates gradient flow forces with region cons...
A new probabilistic image segmentation model based on hypothesis testing and Gibbs Random Fields is introduced. First, a probabilistic difference measure derived from a set of hyp...
This paper presents a range image refinement technique for generating accurate 3D computer models of real objects. Range images obtained from a stereo-vision system typically expe...
