Abstract. In this paper, we introduce background cut, a high quality and realtime foreground layer extraction algorithm. From a single video sequence with a moving foreground objec...
A novel shape descriptor, which can be extracted from the major object edges automatically and used for the multimedia content-based retrieval in multimedia databases, is presented...
We consider the problem of extracting specified types of information from natural language text. To properly analyze the text, we wish to apply semantic (selectional) constraints ...
A novel snake model suitable for edge extraction of bandshape objects is presented in this paper. Based on the proposed model, an edge tracking system, EdgeTrak, has been develope...
In this proposal a novel implementation to find and recognize person actions in image sequences of meeting scenarios is introduced. Such extracted information can be used as the b...
