Plane Segmentation from Two Views in Reciprocal-Polar Image Space
We present a new method of segmenting planar regions when an uncalibrated camera undergoes (near) pure translation. We show that, for pure translation parallel to a plane, the relation between the two views, w...

Open AccessMobile Robot Visual Navigation Using Multiple Features
We propose a method to segment the ground plane from a mobile robot's visual field of view and then measure the height of nonground plane features above the mobile robot's ground plane. Thus a mobile robot can...

Improved Object Tracking Using an Adaptive Colour Model
We present the results of a study to exploit a multiple colour space model (CSM) and variable kernels for object tracking in video sequences. The basis of our work is the mean shift algorithm; for a moving target...

Background Subtraction in Video Using Recursive Mixture Models, Spatio-Temporal Filtering and Shadow Removal
We describe our approach to segmenting moving objects from the color video data supplied by a nominally stationary camera. There are two main contributions in our work. The first contribution augments Zivkovic...

Classification of Linear Structures in Mammograms Using Random Forests
Classification of linear structures, such as blood vessels, milk ducts, spiculations and fibrous tissue can be used to aid the automated detection and diagnosis of mammographic abnormalities. We use a combinat...

Detecting and Classifying Linear Structures in Mammograms Using Random Forests
Detecting and classifying curvilinear structure is important in many image interpretation tasks. We focus on the challenging problem of detecting such structure in mammograms and deciding whether it is normal ...

Open AccessEnhancing oxygen evolution efficiency of multiferroic oxides by spintronic and ferroelectric polarization regulation
Regulating the electronic structure of catalysts is the most efficient strategy yet, despite its limitations, to improve their oxygen evolution efficiency. Instead of only adjusting the electronic structure, h...
