It is now common practice in machine vision to define the variability in an object's appearance in a factored manner, as a combination of shape and texture transformations. I...
Boosting based detection methods have successfully been used for robust detection of faces and pedestrians. However, a very large amount of labeled examples are required for train...
We propose a new technique for fusing multiple cues to robustly segment an object from its background in video sequences that suffer from abrupt changes of both illumination and p...
