Sparse representations of images in well-designed dictionaries can be used for effective classification. Meanwhile, training data available in most realistic settings are likely to be exposed to geometric transformations, which poses a challenge for the de ...
Structure inference is an important task for network data processing and analysis in data science. In recent years, quite a few approaches have been developed to learn the graph structure underlying a set of observations captured in a data space. Although ...
Airborne Laser Scanning is a well-known remote sensing technology, which provides a dense and highly accurate, yet unorganized point cloud of earth surface. During the last decade, extracting information from the data generated by airborne LiDAR systems ha ...
The computation of the geometric transformation between a reference and a target image, known as image registration or alignment, corresponds to the projection of the target image onto the transformation manifold of the reference image (the set of images g ...
Manifold models provide low-dimensional representations that are useful for processing and analyzing data in a transformation-invariant way. In this paper, we study the problem of learning smooth pattern transformation manifolds from image sets that are ob ...

We present a performance analysis for image registration with gradient descent. We consider a typical multiscale registration setting where the global 2-D translation between a pair of images is estimated by smoothing the images and minimizing the distance ...
Numerous dimensionality reduction problems in data analysis involve the recovery of low-dimensional models or the learning of manifolds underlying sets of data. Many manifold learning methods require the estimation of the tangent space of the manifold at a ...
