Skin detection is an important preliminary process in human motion analysis. It is commonly performed in three steps: transforming the pixel color to a non-RGB colorspace, droppin...

In this paper, we first develop a direct Bayesian based Support Vector Machine by combining the Bayesian analysis with the SVM. Unlike traditional SVM-based face recognition metho...
Flat appearance-based systems, which combine clever image representations with standard classifiers, might be the most effective way to recognize objects using current technologie...
In this paper, we propose a novel local steerable phase (LSP) feature extracted from the face image using steerable filter for face representation and recognition. Steerable filte...
In this paper, we address the problem of detecting pedestrians in still images. We introduce an algorithm for learning shapelet features, a set of mid?level features. These featur...
