We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm
for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric
characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels),
embe...

Piecewise constant and piecewise smooth Mumford-Shah (MS) models have been widely studied and used for image segmentation. More complicated than piecewise constant MS, global Gaus...
This paper introduces a new architecture for face detection in color images. Based on skin locus and successive detectors, the method allows high efficiency under drastically vary...

Local search (LS) algorithms are among the most powerful techniques for solving computationally hard problems in combinatorial optimization. These algorithms could be viewed as &q...
In object recognition problems a two-stage system is usually adopted composed of a fast and simple detector and a more complex classifier. This paper studies a design of the secon...
