In many visual tracking and surveillance systems, it is important to initialize a background model using a training video sequence which may include foreground objects. In such a c...
Abstract. This paper presents an integrated approach for robustly locating facial landmark for drivers. In the first step a cascade of probability learners is used to detect the f...
We propose a closely coupled object detection and segmentation algorithm for enhancing both processes in a cooperative and iterative manner. Figure-ground segmentation reduces the...
In this paper we propose a voting-based object boundary reconstruction approach. Tensor voting has been studied by many people recently, and it can be used for boundary estimation...
Shape is one of the fundamental visual features in the Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) paradigm. Numerous shape descriptors have been proposed in the literature. These can be...
