In this paper we evaluate the effectiveness of two likelihood normalization techniques, the Background Model Set (BMS) and the Universal Background Model (UBM), for improving perf...
Active Shape Model (ASM) is one of the most powerful statistical tools for face image alignment. In this paper, we propose a novel method, called Bunch-Active Shape Model (Bunch-AS...
Progressive sequence model refinement by means of iterative searches is an effective technique for high sensitivity database searches and is currently employed in popular tools s...
A new approach for localizing facial structure in videos is proposed in this paper by modeling shape alignment dynamically. The approach makes use of the spatial-temporal continuit...
Multivariate statistical approaches have played an important role of recognising face images and characterizing their differences. In this paper, we introduce the idea of using a ...
