Localizing global descriptors for content-based image retrieval
(Springer, 2015)
In this paper, we explore, extend and simplify the localization of the description ability of the well-established MPEG-7
(Scalable Colour Descriptor (SCD), Colour Layout Descriptor (CLD) and Edge Histogram Descriptor ...
What, Where and How? Introducing pose manifolds for industrial object manipulation
(Elsevier, 2015)
In this paper we propose a novel method for object grasping that aims to unify robot vision techniques for 24
efficiently accomplishing the demanding task of autonomous object manipulation. Through ontological 25
concepts, ...
Real-time indexing for large image databases: color and edge directivity descriptor on GPU
(Springer, 2014)
In this paper, we focus on implementing the extraction of a well-known low-level image descriptor using the multicore power provided by general-purpose graphic processing units (GPGPUs). The color and edge directivity ...
A Multi-Objective Exploration Strategy for Mobile Robots Under Operational Constraints
(IEEE, 2013)
Multi-objective robot exploration constitutes one of the most challenging tasks for autonomous robots performing in various operations and different environments. However, the optimal exploration path depends heavily on ...
How Smart Are Smartphones?: Bridging the marketing and information technology gap.
(IEEE, 2014)
The term "smart" has become widespread in consumer electronics in recent years, reflecting the consumers' need for devices that assist them in their daily activities. The term has a long history of usage in marketing science ...
Automatic summarization and annotation of videos with lack of metadata information
(Elsevier, 2013)
The advances in computer and network infrastructure together with the fast evolution of multimedia data has resulted in the growth of attention to the digital video’s development. The scientific community has increased the ...
Content-based image retrieval over IEEE 802.11b noisy wireless networks
(Wiley, 2014)
Mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets are widely used in everyday life to perform a variety of
operations, such as e-mail exchange, connection to social media, bank/financial transactions, and so on.
Moreover, ...
Vision-Controlled Micro Flying Robots: From System Design to Autonomous Navigation and Mapping in GPS-Denied Environments
(IEEE, 2014)
Autonomous micro helicopters are about to play a major role in tasks like search and rescue, environment monitoring, security surveillance, inspection, etc. If they are further realized in small scale, they can also be ...
Image Moment Invariants as Local Features for Content Based Image Retrieval using the Bag-of-Visual-Words Model
(Elsevier, 2015)
This paper presents an image retrieval framework that uses affine image moment invariants as descriptors of local image areas. Detailed feature vectors are generated by feeding the produced moments into a Bag-of-Visual-Words ...
Hybrid Cellular Ants for Clustering Problems
(Old City Publishing, 2014)
In the last decade the amount of the stored data related to almost all areas of life has rapidly increased. However, the overall process of discovering knowledge from data demands more powerful clustering techniques to ...
