This paper proposes a novel hybrid method to robustly and accurately localize texts in natural scene images. A text region detector is designed to generate a text confidence map,...
Several approaches to real-time video object tracking are reviewed. A new alternative approach for fast real-time object tracking based on colour thresholding is presented. Tracki...
We present a surprisingly simple system that allows for robust normal reconstruction by dense photometric stereo, in the presence of severe shadows, highlight, transparencies, com...
The impact of process variation in state of the art technology makes traditional (worst case) designs unnecessarily pessimistic, which translates to suboptimal designs in terms of...
In this paper, we study the problem of supporting multicast traffic in wireless sensor networks with network coding. On one hand, coding operations can reduce power consumption and...
