In this paper, a novel framework for the recovery of 3D surfaces of faces from single images is developed. The underlying principle is shape from recognition, i.e. the idea that p...
By the guidance of attention, human visual system is able to locate objects of interest in complex scene. We propose a new visual saliency detection model for both image and video...
In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
This paper proposes a novel model-guided segmentation framework utilizing a statistical surface wavelet model as a shape prior. In the model building process, a set of training sh...

Invariant feature descriptors such as SIFT and GLOH have been demonstrated to be very robust for image matching and object recognition. However, such descriptors are typically of ...
