The objective of this paper is twofold. First, we introduce an effective region-based solution for saliency detection. Then, we apply the achieved saliency map to better encode the image features for solving object recognition task. To find the perceptually and semantically meaningful salient regions, we extract superpixels based on an adaptive mean shift algorithm as the basic elements for saliency...
Visualizing video is a very time consuming task. Video summaries are compact representations and very useful in video management systems. However, in some applications, in which the summary must be generated on demand, it usually implies a high delay for the user. Video summarization is a very demanding task in terms of processing resources, and it is very difficult to obtain a summary of a large...
Coding based methods are among the most promising palmprint recognition methods. As one representative coding method, the competitive code first convolves the palmprint image with a bank of Gabor filters with different orientations and then encodes the dominant orientation into its bitwise representation. Despite its effectiveness, few investigations have been given to study the influence of the number...
