Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a recently proposed unsupervised procedure for learning spatially localized, partsbased subspace representation of objects. An improvement of the classical NMF by combining with Log-Gabor wavelets to enhance its part-based learning ability is presented. The new method with principal component analysis (PCA) and locally linear embedding (LIE) proposed recently in Science are compared. Finally, the new method to several real world datasets and achieve good performance in representation and classification is applied.展开更多

As applications, we characterize when such families yield orthonormal or bi-orthogonal expansions. We also obtain a generalization of the Balian-Low theorem for general reprodueing identities (not necessary coming from a frame).展开更多

First, through Gabor wavelet transform (GWT), a kind of energy distribution of image is obtained and checkpoints are selected according to a probability decision approach proposed. Then, the initialized motion vectors are obtained via a hierarcbal block-matching based on these checkpoints. Finally, by employing a 3-parameter motion model, precise parameters of global motion are found. From the experiment, the algorithm is reliable and robust.展开更多

This paper proposed a texture image classification algorithm based on Gabor wavelet. In this algorithm, characteristic of every image is obtained through every pixel and its neighborhood of this image. And this algorithm can achieve the information transform between different sizes of neighborhood.Experiments on standard Brodatz texture image dataset show that our proposed algorithm can achieve good classification rates.展开更多

The experimental results show that the proposed method is robust against facial expression, illumination, and can be also effective if the person wearing glasses, and so on.展开更多
