We present an overview of various edge and line oriented approaches to contour detection
that have been proposed in the last two decades. By edge and line oriented we mean …

Potential field filters are widely used in exploration and interpretation of geologic structures,
archaeological sites, hazards assessment, and in engineering and environmental studies …

In this paper, the classification via sprepresentation and multitask learning is presented for
target recognition in SAR image. To capture the characteristics of SAR image, a …

The main contribution of our approach is to apply the Hilbert-Huang Transform (which
consists of two parts:(a) Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), and (b) the Hilbert spectral …

Despite claims that finger-vein biometrics can detect aliveness, recent research has shown
that current systems can be fooled by forged vein patterns printed on a distinctive paper …

This paper introduces a novel classification strategy based on the monogenic scale space
for target recognition in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image. The proposed method …

The monogenic signal is the natural 2D counterpart of the 1D analytic signal. We propose to
transpose the concept to the wavelet domain by considering a complexified version of the …

Ultrasonic image segmentation is a difficult problem due to speckle noise, low contrast, and
local changes of intensity. Intensity-based methods do not perform particularly well on …

A receptive field constitutes a region in the visual field where a visual cell or a visual
operator responds to visual stimuli. This paper presents a theory for what types of receptive …

This paper describes a generalized axiomatic scale-space theory that makes it possible to
derive the notions of linear scale-space, affine Gaussian scale-space and linear spatio …
