Abstract. In this paper, we present a deformable-model based solution for segmenting objects with complex texture patterns of all scales. The external image forces in traditional d...

In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
Recently, the bag-of-words approach has been successfully applied to automatic image annotation, object recognition, etc. The method needs to first quantize an image using the vis...
Support vector machines (SVMs) have been promising methods for classification and regression analysis because of their solid mathematical foundations which convey several salient ...
The performance of face recognition systems that use two-dimensional images depends on consistent conditions w.r.t. lighting, pose, and facial appearance. We are developing a face...
