We introduce a novel computational method for a Mumford-Shah functional, which decomposes a given image into smooth regions separated by closed curves. Casting this as a shape opti...
Sign language is used for communicating to people with hearing difficulties. Recogntion of a sign language image sequence is challenging because of the variety of hand shapes and ...
We present a document-specific OCR system and apply it to a corpus of faxed business letters. Unsupervised classification of the segmented character bitmaps on each page, using a ...
In the context of an experimental virtual-reality surgical planning software platform, we propose a fully self-assessed adaptive region growing segmentation algorithm. Our method s...
Abstract. We propose a novel model-based approach to activity recognition using high-level primitives that are derived from a human body model estimated from sensor data. Using sho...
