3D ear modeling and recognition from video sequences using shape from shading
We describe a novel approach for 3D ear biometrics using video. A series of frames are extracted from a video clip and the region-of-interest (ROI) in each frame is independently ...

Recognizing Deviations from Normalcy for Brain Tumor Segmentation
A framework is proposed for the segmentation of brain tumors from MRI. Instead of training on pathology, the proposed method trains exclusively on healthy tissue. The algorithm att...
