Edge Detection

by Ellen C. Hildreth , 1985
"... For both biological systems and machines, vision begins with a large and unwieldy array of measurements of the amount of light reflected from surfaces in the environment. The goal of vision is to recover physical properties of objects in the scene, such as the location of object boundaries and the s ..."

reviews some of the theory that underlies the detection of edges, and the methods used to carry out this analysis.

Detection and Tracking of Point Features

by Carlo Tomasi, Takeo Kanade - International Journal of Computer Vision , 1991
"... The factorization method described in this series of reports requires an algorithm to track the motion of features in an image stream. Given the small inter-frame displacement made possible by the factorization approach, the best tracking method turns out to be the one proposed by Lucas and Kanade i ..."

Robust Real-time Object Detection

by Paul Viola, Michael Jones - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2001
"... This paper describes a visual object detection framework that is capable of processing images extremely rapidly while achieving high detection rates. There are three key contributions. The first is the introduction of a new image representation called the “Integral Image ” which allows the features ..."

Detecting faces in images: A survey

by Ming-hsuan Yang, David J. Kriegman, Narendra Ahuja - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2002
"... Images containing faces are essential to intelligent vision-based human computer interaction, and research efforts in face processing include face recognition, face tracking, pose estimation, and expression recognition. However, many reported methods assume that the faces in an image or an image se ..."

A computational approach to edge detection

by John Canny - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 1986
"... This paper describes a computational approach to edge detection. The success of the approach depends on the definition of a comprehensive set of goals for the computation of edge points. These goals must be precise enough to delimit the desired behavior of the detector while making minimal assumpti ..."

Feature detection with automatic scale selection

by Tony Lindeberg - International Journal of Computer Vision , 1998
"... The fact that objects in the world appear in different ways depending on the scale of observation has important implications if one aims at describing them. It shows that the notion of scale is of utmost importance when processing unknown measurement data by automatic methods. In their seminal works ..."

Object Detection with Discriminatively Trained Part Based Models

by Pedro F. Felzenszwalb, Ross B. Girshick, David McAllester, Deva Ramanan
"... We describe an object detection system based on mixtures of multiscale deformable part models. Our system is able to represent highly variable object classes and achieves state-of-the-art results in the PASCAL object detection challenges. While deformable part models have become quite popular, their ..."

Training Support Vector Machines: an Application to Face Detection

by Edgar Osuna, Robert Freund, Federico Girosi , 1997
"... We investigate the application of Support Vector Machines (SVMs) in computer vision. SVM is a learning technique developed by V. Vapnik and his team (AT&T Bell Labs.) that can be seen as a new method for training polynomial, neural network, or Radial Basis Functions classifiers. The decision sur ..."

Random Early Detection Gateways for Congestion Avoidance.

by Sally Floyd , Van Jacobson - IEEELACM Transactions on Networking, , 1993
"... Abstract-This paper presents Random Early Detection (RED) gateways for congestion avoidance in packet-switched networks. The gateway detects incipient congestion by computing the average queue size. The gateway could notify connections of congestion either by dropping packets arriving at the gatewa ..."

While the principles behind RED gateways are fairly general and RED gateways can be useful in controlling the average queue size even in a network where the transport

Image registration methods: a survey.

by Barbara Zitová , Jan Flusser , 2003
"... Abstract This paper aims to present a review of recent as well as classic image registration methods. Image registration is the process of overlaying images (two or more) of the same scene taken at different times, from different viewpoints, and/or by different sensors. The registration geometrical ..."
