This paper presents a new approach to scene analysis, which aims at extracting structured information from a video sequence using directly low-level data. The method models the se...
—In this work we propose a dynamic-texture-based approach to the recognition of facial Action Units (AUs, atomic facial gestures) and their temporal models (i.e., sequences of te...
One of the key tasks for analyzing conversational data is segmenting it into coherent topic segments. However, most models of topic segmentation ignore the social aspect of conver...

We present a supervised classification model based on a variational approach. This model is specifically devoted to textured images. We want to get a partition of an image, compos...
We construct a Bayesian model that integrates topdown with bottom-up criteria, capitalizing on their relative merits to obtain figure-ground segmentation that is shape-specific an...
