Previous work has shown that human vision performs spatial integration of luminance contrast energy, where signals are squared and summed (with internal noise) over area at detection threshold. We tested that model here in an experiment using arrays of micro-pattern textures that varied in overall stimulus area and sparseness of their target elements, where the contrast of each element was norm...

Light reflecting from instrument panel and center console automobile displays is distracting to drivers and necessitates overhanging dashboard designs that take up valuable interior space. A recent trend toward displaying increasing amounts of information with navigation and communication systems, has compounded the significance of light reflection. The conventional anti-reflection (AR) techniq...

Now a days, applications in the field of surveillance, banking and multimedia equipment are becoming more important, but since each application related to face analysis demands different requirements on the analysis process, almost all algorithms and approaches for face analysis are application dependent and a standardization or generalization is quite difficult. For that reason and since many ...
