In this paper, we propose to use the Colored Pattern Appearance Model (CPAM) as a content representation for video scene break detection. This model represents a scene by means of...
This paper presents an e cient recursive algorithm for generating operationally optimal intra mode scalable layer decompositions of object contours. The problem is posed in terms ...
We address the problem of robust appearance-based visual tracking. First, a set of simplified biologically inspired features (SBIF) is proposed for object representation and the B...
Sparse Orthonormal Transforms (SOT) has recently been proposed as a data compression method that can achieve sparser representations in transform domain. Given initial conditions,...
Multi-class binary symbol classification requires the use of rich descriptors and robust classifiers. Shape representation is a difficult task because of several symbol distortions...
