General dissimilarity-based learning approaches have been proposed for dissimilarity data sets [11, 10]. They arise in problems in which direct comparisons of objects are made, e....
We present a novel split and merge based method for dividing a given metric map into distinct regions, thus effectively creating a topological map on top of a metric one. The init...
Skin color is an important feature of faces. Various applications benefit from robust skin color detection. Depending on camera settings, illumination, shadows, people's tans...
We propose a new maximum margin discriminative learning algorithm here for classification of temporal signals. It is superior to conventional HMM in the sense that it does not nee...
We propose a method of calibrating multiple camera systems that operates by adjusting the camera parameters and the 3D shape of objects onto silhouette observations. Our method em...
