This paper describes an algorithm for shape estimation in cluttered scenes. A new image potential is defined based on strokes detected in the image. The motivation is simple. Fea...
Abstract. In this paper, we incorporated the global convex segmentation method and the split Bregman technique into the region-scalable fitting energy model. The new proposed metho...

We propose a new complexity modeling framework for multimedia tasks. We characterize the traffic with five parameters that together we designate as a task's complexity specif...
We propose a new fast facial-feature extraction technique for embedded face-recognition applications. A deformable feature model is adopted, of which the parameters are optimized t...
In many applications, it is often desirable to extract a consistent key from a multimedia object (e.g., an image), even when the object has gone through a noisy channel. For examp...
