In this paper, we propose a novel method for the automatic segmentation of a foreground layer from a natural scene in real time by fusing infrared, color and edge information. Thi...
In this paper we argue that gestures based on nonaccidental motion features can be reliably detected amongst unconstrained background motion. Specifically, we demonstrate that hu...
We present a framework for audio background modeling of complex and unstructured audio environments. The determination of background audio is important for understanding and predi...
— The automatic extraction and analysis of visual information is becoming generalised. The first step in this processing chain is usually separating or segmenting the captured v...
In this paper we are interested in finding images of people on the web, and more specifically within large databases of captioned news images. It has recently been shown that visua...
