Computing the gradient of an image is a common step in computer vision pipelines. The image gradient quantifies the magnitude and direction of edges in an image and is used in creating features for downstream machine learning tasks.…

We consider the simultaneous movement of finitely many colored points in space, calling it a spatial sorting process. The name suggests a purpose that drives the collection to a configuration of increased or decreased order. Mapping such a…

We transpose an optimal control technique to the image segmentation problem. The idea is to consider image segmentation as a parameter estimation problem. The parameter to estimate is the color of the pixels of the image. We use the…

Color image segmentation is a very emerging research topic in the area of color image analysis and pattern recognition. Many state-of-the-art algorithms have been developed for this purpose. But, often the segmentation results of these…

This work is about the use of regularized optimal-transport distances for convex, histogram-based image segmentation. In the considered framework, fixed exemplar histograms define a prior on the statistical features of the two regions in…

In this paper we propose a high-order accurate scheme for image segmentation based on the level-set method. In this approach, the curve evolution is described as the 0-level set of a representation function but we modify the velocity that…

Although it seems counter-intuitive, categorical colours do not exist as external physical entities but are very much the product of our brains. Our cortical machinery segments the world and associate objects to specific colour terms, which…

Pooling is a ubiquitous operation in image processing algorithms that allows for higher-level processes to collect relevant low-level features from a region of interest. Currently, max-pooling is one of the most commonly used operators in…

The Colour Refinement algorithm is a classical procedure to detect symmetries in graphs, whose most prominent application is in graph-isomorphism tests. The algorithm and its generalisation, the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm, evaluate local…

We propose approaches based on deep learning to localize objects in images when only a small training dataset is available and the images have low quality. That applies to many problems in medical image processing, and in particular to the…

Aesthetic image cropping aims to enhance the aesthetic quality of an image by improving its composition through spatial cropping. Previous methods often rely on saliency prediction or retrieval augmentation, ignoring the task's core…

In color spaces where the chromatic term is given in polar coordinates, the shortest distance between colors of the same value is circular. By converting such a space into a complex polar form with a real-valued value axis, a color algebra…

Mathematical morphology (MM) helps to describe and analyze shapes using set theory. MM can be effectively applied to binary images which are treated as sets. Basic morphological operators defined can be used as an effective tool in image…

Color descriptors are one of the important features used in content-based image retrieval. The Dominant Color Descriptor (DCD) represents a few perceptually dominant colors in an image through color quantization. For image retrieval based…

Mathematical morphology is a theory and technique to collect features like geometric and topological structures in digital images. Given a target image, determining suitable morphological operations and structuring elements is a cumbersome…

Szlam's Lemma began life as a way of getting upper bounds on the chromatic numbers of distance graphs in normed vector spaces. Now analogs are available in a variety of hypergraph settings, but the method always involves a shrewdly chosen…

Enhancement is an important step in post-processing digital images for personal use, in medical imaging, and for object recognition. Most existing manual techniques rely on region selection, similarity, and/or thresholding for editing,…

Color information is the most commonly used prior knowledge for depth map super-resolution (DSR), which can provide high-frequency boundary guidance for detail restoration. However, its role and functionality in DSR have not been fully…

Aspl\"und 's metric, which is useful for pattern matching, consists in a double-sided probing, i.e. the over-graph and the sub-graph of a function are probed jointly. This paper extends the Aspl\"und 's metric we previously defined for…

Handling various objects with different colors is a significant challenge for image colorization techniques. Thus, for complex real-world scenes, the existing image colorization algorithms often fail to maintain color consistency. In this…
