A high-level approach to describe the characteristics of a surface is to segment it into regions of uniform curehavior and construct an abstract representation given by a (topolog...

The proposed method is related to parametric and geodesic active contours as well as minimal paths, in the context of image segmentation 1 . Our geodesically linked active contour ...
We describe an approach for extracting threedimensional articulated motion from unrestricted monocular video sequences. We combine feature extraction methods based on active conto...

In this paper, we present an automatic face authentication system. Accurate segmentation of prominent facial features is accomplished by means of an extension of the Active Shape M...
A method for video indexing and filtering based on motion activity characteristics in hierarchical levels is proposed. To extract motion activity information, an MPEG (MPEG-1/2) v...
