Abstract. The first step in various computer vision applications is a detection of moving objects. The prevalent pixel-wise models regard image pixels as independent random process...
This paper proposes a general framework called Markov stationary features (MSF) to extend histogram based features. The MSF characterizes the spatial co-occurrence of histogram pa...
Abstract. In spite of over two decades of intense research, illumination and pose invariance remain prohibitively challenging aspects of face recognition for most practical applica...
Kernel-based trackers aggregate image features within the support of a kernel (a mask) regardless of their spatial structure. These trackers spatially fit the kernel (usually in l...
