Most of the existing image retrieval systems take the textual query from the user and utilize the metadata associated with the database images to retrieve the result. However, the...
Abstract. This paper presents a real time parallel hardware architecture for image feature detection based on the SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm. This architect...

Current feature-based object recognition methods use information derived from local image patches. For robustness, features are engineered for invariance to various transformation...
This paper introduces an affine invariant shape descriptor for maximally stable extremal regions (MSER). Affine invariant feature descriptors are normally computed by sampling the...
Local feature methods suitable for image feature based object recognition and for the estimation of motion and structure are composed of two steps, namely the `where' and `wh...
