Facial feature localization is an important research area in both computer vision and pattern analysis. We present in this paper a hierarchical face model. It unifies both the gl...
Palmprint recognition is an active member of biometrics in recent years. State-of-the-art algorithms of palmprint recognition describe appearances of palmprints efficiently throug...
A mobile agent with the task to classify its sensor pattern has to cope with ambiguous information. Active recognition of three-dimensional objects involves the observer in a sear...
