Real-world face recognition systems are sometimes confronted with degraded face images, e.g., low-resolution, blurred, and noisy ones. Traditional two-step methods have limited per...
An automated system for planning and optimization of lumber production using Machine Vision and Computed Tomography (CT) is proposed. Cross-sectional CT images of hardwood logs are...

—Recovering the 3D shape of a nonrigid surface from a single viewpoint is known to be both ambiguous and challenging. Resolving the ambiguities typically requires prior knowledge...
In this paper, we present a robust method for estimating the model parameters in a mixture of probabilistic principal component analyzers. This method is based on the Stochastic v...
Learning a robust projection with a small number of training samples is still a challenging problem in face recognition, especially when the unseen faces have extreme variation in...
