Change detection is a temporal segmentation tool aiming at identifying changes in image sets or image sequences at two different times. Many change detection algorithms have been proposed over the past decade for the generation of video objects in a wide r ...
We present a new approach for the design of optimal steerable 2-D templates for feature detection. As opposed to classical schemes where the optimal 1-D template is derived and extended to 2-D, we directly obtain the 2-D template. We choose the template fr ...
When comparing different methods for face detection or localization, one realizes that just simply comparing the reported results is misleading as, even if the results are reported on the same dataset, different authors have different views of what a corre ...
In many microorganisms, flux limitations in oxidative metab. lead to the formation of overflow metabolites even under fully aerobic conditions. This can be avoided if the specific growth rate is controlled at a low enough value. This is usually accomplishe ...
The Circle Hough Transform (CHT) has become a common method for circle detection in numerous image processing applications. Because of its drawbacks, various modifications to the basic CHT method have been suggested. This paper presents an algorithm to fin ...
We present a new technique for extracting line-type features on point-sampled geometry. Given an unstructured point cloud as input, our method first applies principal component analysis on local neighborhoods to classify points according to the likelihood ...
Motion detection from mobile platforms is a challenging task. It requires precise position information, which is difficult in cluttered dynamic environments. We combine motion detection and position estimation using Expectation Maximization. To reduce the ...
In this paper we propose a new, interactive technique for the segmentation of elongated structures in images. It is based on the so-called live-wire segmentation paradigm and uses a newly developed steerable filter for computing local ridge strength and or ...
In this thesis, we present a coherent and consistent approach for the estimation of shape and shape attributes from noisy images. As compared to the traditional sequential approach, our scheme is centered on a shape model which drives the feature extractio ...
Humans have the ability to learn. Having seen an object we can recognise it later. We can do this because our nervous system uses an efficient and robust visual processing and capabilities to learn from sensory input. On the other hand, designing algorithm ...
