Robust Facial Feature Extraction Using Embedded Hidden Markov Model for Face Recognition under Large Pose Variation
We propose an algorithm for extracting facial features robustly from images for face recognition under large pose variation. Rectangular facial features are retrieved via the by-p...

Vocabulary Hierarchy Optimization for Effective and Transferable Retrieval
Scalable image retrieval systems usually involve hierarchical quantization of local image descriptors, which produces a visual vocabulary for inverted indexing of images. Although ...

The Naked Truth: Estimating Body Shape Under Clothing
We propose a method to estimate the detailed 3D shape of a person from images of that person wearing clothing. The approach exploits a model of human body shapes that is learned fr...

A comparison of discrete and continuous output modeling techniques for a pseudo-2D hidden Markov model face recognition system
Face recognition has become an important topic within the field of pattern recognition and computer vision. In this field a number of different approaches to feature extraction, m...
