Detection and Location of People in Video Images Using Adaptive Fusion of Color and Edge Information
A new method of finding people in video images is presented. Detection is based on a novel background modeling and subtraction approach which uses both color and edge information....

Articulated-Body Tracking Through Anisotropic Edge Detection
This paper addresses the problem of articulated motion tracking from image sequences. We describe a method that relies on both an explicit parameterization of the extremal contours...

Image Segmentation Model using Active Contour and Image Decomposition
This paper proposes an image segmentation model based on the active contour model, the Mumford-Shah functional and the image decomposition process. Generally speaking, the active ...

Minimal Weighted Local Variance as Edge Detector for Active Contour Models
Performing segmentation of narrow, elongated structures with low contrast boundaries is a challenging problem. Boundaries of these structures are difficult to be located when noise...
