In this paper, a novel face recognition method based on Gabor-wavelet and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is proposed. Given training face images, discriminant vectors are compu...

As digital cameras have been used widely, a technology to extract features of character string areas from scenery (nature) image is required. However, it is very difficult to extr...
We present a method to detect characters on signboards in natural scene images. For many applications, both classifier with small computational cost and the efficient feature set,...
The implicit framework of the level-set method has several advantages when tracking propagating fronts. Indeed, the evolving contour is embedded in a higher dimensional level-set f...
Past research on automatic laughter detection has focused mainly on audio-based detection. Here we present an audiovisual approach to distinguishing laughter from speech and we sh...
