Semi-automatic/automatic road extraction from remote sensing imagery is one of the hot topics in the field of remote sensing, surveying and mapping and computer vision, etc. Traditional methods based on Marr's Computation Theory of Vision follow the pattern of local-to-global features extraction. However, in high resolution image, the local features such as road boundary and road width are easily...
We present an automatic hexahedralization tool, based on a systematic treatment that removes some of the singularities that would lead to degenerate volumetric parameterization. Such singularities could be abundant in automatically generated frame fields guiding the interior and boundary layouts of the hexahedra in an all hexahedral mesh. We first give the mathematical definitions of the inadmissible...
This work is concerned with solving non-convex power optimization problems by introducing the concept of “nonlinear optimization over graph”. To this end, the structure of a given nonlinear real/complex optimization with quadratic arguments is mapped into a generalized weighted graph, where each edge is associated with a weight set constructed from the known parameters of the optimization (e.g., the...
In this paper, we propose a novel inter-group image registration method to register different groups of images (e.g., young and elderly brains) simultaneously. Specifically, we use a hierarchical two-level graph to model the distribution of entire images on the manifold, with intra-graph representing the image distribution in each group and the inter-graph describing the relationship between two groups...
Most computer vision methods deal with the single object recognition problem. If an object is so small that little features can be used to support recognition procedure, the relationship between multi-objects could be helpful. In many cases, small objects are likely to be arranged by some regular shapes. To recognize these arrays, the paper presents a spatial topology detection algorithm. We call...
Problems related to network coding for acyclic, instantaneous networks (where the edges of the acyclic graph representing the network are assumed to have zero-delay) have been extensively dealt with in the recent past. The most prominent of these problems include (a) the existence of network codes that achieve maximum rate of transmission, (b) efficient network code constructions, and (c) field size...
We propose a new method for performing edge detection in multi-spectral images based on the self-organizing map (SOM) concept. Previously, 1-dimensional or 2-dimensional SOMs were trained to provide a linear mapping of high-dimensional multispectral vectors. Then, edge detection was applied on that mapping. However, the 1-dimensional SOM may not converge on a suitable global order for images with...
