We address the problem of detecting irregularities in visual data, e.g., detecting suspicious behaviors in video sequences, or identifying salient patterns in images. The term &qu...
This paper presents a method for visual object categorization based on encoding the joint textural information in objects and the surrounding background, and requiring no segmenta...

Most object detection techniques discussed in the literature are based solely on texture-based features that capture the global or local appearance of an object. While results indi...
We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...
This paper proposes an efficient skin-color and template based technique for automatic ear detection in a side face image. The technique first separates skin regions from nonski...
