We propose a novel energy term to make the curve evolution quite robust to spurious edges. The physical intuition behind the formulation is that an object edge is generally contin...
This paper introduces a novel energy minimization method, namely iterated cross entropy with partition strategy (ICEPS), into the Markov random field theory. The solver, which is...
Detection of multiple people is a key element for social robot design and it is a requirement for effective human-robot interaction. However, it is not an easy task, especially in...
Computational models of grounded language learning have been based on the premise that words and concepts are learned simultaneously. Given the mounting cognitive evidence for conc...
Several scalable media codecs have been standardized in recent years to cope with heterogeneous usage conditions and to aim at always providing audio, video and image content in t...
