Contour grouping with shape manifold and distance transform
Object detection in clutter or occlusion is a hard problem in computer vision. We propose an object detection method based on contour grouping. Two stages are included: a novel di...

EMD-L1: An Efficient and Robust Algorithm for Comparing Histogram-Based Descriptors
We propose a fast algorithm, EMD-L1, for computing the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) between a pair of histograms. Compared to the original formulation, EMD-L1 has a largely si...

Constrained Circular Hidden Markov Models for Recognizing Deformed Shapes
In this paper, we analyse the properties of the standard circular hidden Markov model (HMM) on 2D shape recognition. We point out the limitations of the circular HMMs and further ...

Shaping user input in speech graffiti: a first pass
Speech Graffiti is a standardized interaction protocol for spoken dialog systems designed to address some common difficulties with ASR. We have proposed a strategy of shaping to h...
