In this paper, we describe a statistical method to detect highlights in a baseball game video. The input video is first segmented into scene shots, within which the camera motion ...
Abstract. We propose an extension of the Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) that allows the joint shape and appearance of foreground objects in cluttered images to be modeled indep...
The shape of a population of geometric entities is characterized by both the common geometry of the population and the variability among instances. In the deformable model approach...
