Terrain Rendering and Information System

People Involved : Shiben Bhattacharjee, Suryakant Patidar

Digital Terrain Model refer to a data model that attempts to provide a three dimensional representation of a continuous surface, since terrains are two and a half dimensional rather than three dimensional.
Data Generation Tool kit

People Involved :V Krishna

Synthetic data is very useful for validating the algorithms developed for various computer vision and image based rendering algorithms.
Recognition of Indian Language Documents

People Involved : Million Meshesha, Balasubramanian Anand, Sesh Kumar, L. Jagannathan

The present growth of digitization of documents demands an immediate solution to enable the archived valuable materials searchable and usable by users in order to achieve its objective
Retrieval of Document Images

People Involved : Million Meshesha, Balasubramanian Anand, Pramod Sankar K, Anand Kumar

Our approach towards retrieval of document images, avoids explicit recognition of the text. Instead, we perform word matching in the image space. Given a query word, we generate its corresponding word image, and compare it against the words in the documents.
Retrieval from Video Databases

People Involved :Tarun Jain, Anurag Singh Rana, Balakrishna C., Pramod Sankar K., Saurabh Pandey, Balamanohar P., Natraj J.

Digital Libraries of broadcast videos could be easily built with existing technology. The storage, archival, search and retrieval of broadcast videos provide a large number of challenges for the research community. We address these challenges in different novel directions.
Robotic Vision

People Involved : Abdul Hafez, Visesh Uday Kumar, Supreeth, Anil, D. Santosh

Our research activity is primarily concerned with the geometric analysis of scenes captured by vision sensors and the control of a robot so as to perform set tasks by utilzing the scene intepretation.
Content Based Image Retrieval : CBIR

People Involved : Pradhee Tandon, P. Suman Karthik, Natraj J., Dhaval Mehta, E. S. V. N. L. S. Diwakar

We strive to enable machines with subjective perception capabilities at par with human their counterparts, especially with regards to images.
Contours, Textures, Homography and Fourier Domain

People Involved :Sujit Kuthirummal, Paresh Kumar Jain, M. Pawan Kumar, Saurabh Goyal

The aim of this study is to come up with a Fourier representation of contours and then utilise it to estimate two view relationships like homography and also come up with novel invariants.
Biometrics

People Involved :Vandana Roy, Sachin Gupta

The aim of the work is to develop robust and accurate biometric recognition systems, primarily for use in civilian applications. We are currently working on enhancing soft biometric traits such as hand geometry and palm texture, and also on gathering identity information from online handwritten documents.
Online Handwriting Analysis

People Involved :Naveen Chandra Tewari, Sachin Gupta

Handwritten Recognition refers to mapping of meaningful handwritten lexemes to computer understandable codes. There are many applications in which entering data using handwriting is more convenient than keyboard like in making notes or making hand sketches.
Garuda: A Scalable, Geometry Managed Display Wall

People Involved :Pawan Harish, Nirnimesh

Cluster-based tiled display walls simultaneously provide high resolution and large display area (Focus + Context) and are suitable for many applications. They are also cost-effective and scalable with low incremental costs. Garuda is a client-server based display wall solution designed to use off-the-shelf graphics hardware and standard Ethernet network.
Depth-Image Representations

People Involved : Pooja Verlani, Aditi Goswami, Shekhar Dwivedi, Sireesh Reddy K, Sashi Kumar Penta

Depth Images are viable representations that can be computed from the real world using cameras and/or other scanning devices. The depth map provides a 2 and a half D structure of the scene. The depth map gives a visibility-limited model of the scene and can be rendered easily using graphics techniques.
Learning Appearance Models

People Involved :Karteek Alahari, Paresh Jain, Ranjeeth Kumar, Manikandan

Our reseach focuses on learning appearance models from images/videos that can be used for a variety of tasks such as recognition, detection and classification etc.
