Most algorithms for real-time tracking of deformable shapes provide sub-optimal solutions for a suitable energy minimization task: The search space is typically considered too lar...
We describe a new region descriptor and apply it to two problems, object detection and texture classification. The covariance of d-features, e.g., the three-dimensional color vecto...
Abstract. In this paper we present a general technique for face and facial features localization in 2D color images with arbitrary background. In a previous work we studied an eye ...

In this paper a novel non-linear subspace method for face verification is proposed. The problem of face verification is considered as a two-class problem (genuine versus imposto...
In order to deploy mobile robots in social environments like indoor buildings, they need to be provided with perceptual abilities to detect people. In the computer vision literatur...
