Large-scale Image Geo-Localization Using Dominant Sets

This paper presents a new approach for the challenging problem of geo-locating an image using image matching in a structured database of city-wide reference images with known GPS coordinates. We cast the geo-localization as a clustering problem on local image features. Akin to existing approaches on the problem, our framework builds on low-level features which allow partial matching between ima...

Recognition from Appearance Subspaces across Image Sets of Variable Scale

Linear subspace representations of appearance variation are pervasive in computer vision. In this paper we address the problem of robustly matching them (computing the similarity between them) when they correspond to sets of images of different (possibly greatly so) scales. We show that the naïve solution of projecting the low-scale subspace into the high-scale image space is inadequate, especi...

Image Provenance Analysis at Scale

Prior art has shown it is possible to estimate, through image processing and computer vision techniques, the types and parameters of transformations that have been applied to the content of individual images to obtain new images. Given a large corpus of images and a query image, an interesting further step is to retrieve the set of original images whose content is present in the query image, as...

Large-scale analysis of high-speed atomic force microscopy data sets using adaptive image processing

Modern high-speed atomic force microscopes generate significant quantities of data in a short amount of time. Each image in the sequence has to be processed quickly and accurately in order to obtain a true representation of the sample and its changes over time. This paper presents an automated, adaptive algorithm for the required processing of AFM images. The algorithm adaptively corrects for b...
