In this paper we introduce and exploit the concept of contextual rules in the field of object detection. These rules are defined as associations between different object likelihoo...
In this paper, we propose a method for smoke detection in outdoor video sequences. We assume that the camera is mounted on a pan/tilt device. The proposed method is composed of th...
A top-down task-dependent model guides attention to likely target locations in cluttered scenes. Here, a novel biologically plausible top-down auditory attention model is presente...
In this paper, we present an automatic method for hair segmentation. Our algorithm is divided into two steps. Firstly, we take information from frequential and color analysis in o...
This paper presents a real-time single-camera surveillance system, aiming at detecting and partly analyzing a group of people. A set of moving persons is segmented using a combina...
