Image search engines commonly employ the Bag Of Features (BOF) method to represent each database image with a feature vector and retrieve the best candidate using a measure of similarity to a query image vector. The BOF vector, which specifies the occurrence frequency of features, is used with Soft Assignment (SA) to find the most similar candidates which are further analyzed using geometric information...
Finding accurate positions of mobile devices based on visual information involves searching for query-matching images in a very large dataset, typically containing millions of images. Although the main problem is designing a reliable image retrieval engine, accurate localization also depends on a good fusion algorithm between the GPS data (geo-tags) of each query-matching image and the query image...
Accurate localization of mobile devices based on camera-acquired visual media information usually requires a search over a very large GPS-referenced image database. This paper proposes an efficient method for limiting the search space for image retrieval engine by extracting and leveraging additional media information about Estimated Positional Error (EPE) to address complexity and accuracy issues...
Accurate information about the location and orientation of a camera in mobile devices is central to the utilization of location-based services (LBS). Most of such mobile devices rely on GPS data but this data is subject to inaccuracy due to imperfections in the quality of the signal provided by satellites. This shortcoming has spurred the research into improving the accuracy of localization. Since...
The quantification of intra-retinal boundaries in the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a crucial task to study and diagnose neurological and ocular diseases. Since the manual segmentation of layers is usually a time consuming task and relies on the user, an excessive volume of research has been done to do this job automatically and without interference of the user. Although, generally the same...
