An algorithm for tracking a person's head is presented. The head's projection onto the image plane is modeled as an ellipse whose position and size are continually updat...
Image retrieval critically relies on the distance function used to compare a query image to images in the database. We suggest to learn such distance functions by training binary ...
The concept of the Bayesian optimal single threshold is a well established and widely used classification technique. In this paper, we prove that when spatial cohesion is assumed ...
A fast 3D model reconstruction methodology is desirable in many applications such as urban planning, training, and simulations. In this paper, we develop an automated algorithm fo...
Traditionally, object recognition is performed based solely on the appearance of the object. However, relevant information also exists in the scene surrounding the object. As supp...
