In this paper we present the face recognition method using feature-level fusion where the infrared (IR) and visible face images are fused at transformed domain. The main contribut...
Image matting is of great importance in both computer vision and graphics applications. Most existing state-of-the-art techniques rely on large sparse matrices such as the matting ...
Abstract—Parallel file systems are designed to mask the everincreasing gap between CPU and disk speeds via parallel I/O processing. While they have become an indispensable compo...
We propose a novel statistical method for motion detection and background maintenance for a mobile observer. Our method is based on global motion estimation and statistical backgro...
Scatter search is an evolutionary method that has been successfully applied to hard optimization problems. The fundamental concepts and principles of the method were first propose...
