This paper is an overview to Visual Simultaneous Localization and Map** (V-SLAM). We
discuss the basic definitions in the SLAM and vision system fields and provide a review of …

Autonomous driving vehicles require both a precise localization and map** solution in
different driving environment. In this context, Simultaneous Localization and Map** …

In this paper, we propose a novel benchmark for evaluating local image descriptors. We
demonstrate that the existing datasets and evaluation protocols do not specify …

We introduce a novel Deep Network architecture that implements the full feature point
handling pipeline, that is, detection, orientation estimation, and feature description. While …

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) techniques have currently gained increasing
popularity in the medical field because they can use numerous and valuable archived …

The complexity of multimedia contents is significantly increasing in the current digital world.
This yields an exigent demand for develo** highly effective retrieval systems to satisfy …

This paper presents a novel method for feature description based on intensity order.
Specifically, a Local Intensity Order Pattern (LIOP) is proposed to encode the local ordinal …

The registration of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical images is a challenging task
due to the potential nonlinear intensity differences between the two images. In this paper, a …

Although feature-based methods have been successfully developed in the past decades for
the registration of optical images, the registration of optical and synthetic aperture radar …

In this paper, we propose a new classification method for five categories of lung tissues in
high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images, with feature-based image patch …
