Human-Machine interfaces play a role of growing importance as computer technology continues to evolve. Motivated by the desire to provide users with an intuitive gesture input syst...
The wavelet transform has been used for feature extraction in many applications of pattern recognition. However, in general the learning algorithms are not designed taking into acc...
We present a new statistical model for characterizing texture images based on wavelet-domain hidden Markov models. With a small number of parameters, the new model captures both th...
This paper presents a new framework for shape modeling and analysis. A shape instance is described by a curvature-based shape descriptor. A Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) is ...
This paper proposes a novel method to detect flames in video by processing the data generated by an ordinary camera monitoring a scene. In addition to ordinary motion and color cl...
