This paper presents a new approach to the tracking of regions in an image sequence. Unlike most other methods, the proposed approach can handle topology changes, i.e., regions may...

* In this paper, we present a study of hierarchically characterizing image content from coarse level to fine level conducted using a series of shape features as a case in point. I...
In this paper, we apply the complexity?regularization principle to Poisson imaging. We formulate a natural distortion measure in image space, and present a connection between comp...
We develop an information?theoretic analysis of dependencies between image wavelet coefficients. The dependencies are measured using mutual information, which has a direct link wi...
This paper presents a novel face-assisted video coding scheme to enhance the visual quality of the face regions in video telephony applications. A skin-color based face detection ...
In this paper, we try to improve a video object-tracking algorithm using a motion re-estimation scheme. The usual object tracking algorithm is composed of two steps: object projec...
The use of visual information from lip movements can improve the accuracy and robustness of a speech recognition system. Accurate extraction of visual features associated with the...
