The Active Wavelet Network (AWN) [9] approach was recently proposed for automatic face alignment, showing advantages over Active Appearance Models (AAM), such as more robustness a...
In this paper we describe an approach for inferring the body posture using a 3D visual-hull constructed from a set of silhouettes. We introduce an appearance-based, view-independe...
Techniques for face recognition generally fall into global and local approaches, with the principal component analysis (PCA) being the most prominent global approach. This paper u...
In this paper, we propose the concept of Manifold of Facial Expression based on the observation that images of a subject’s facial expressions define a smooth manifold in the hig...
Recognition under illumination variations is a challenging problem. The key is to successfully separate the illumination source from the observed appearance. Once separated, what ...
In this paper, we investigate the utility of static anthropometric distances as a biometric for human identification. The 3D landmark data from the CAESAR database is used to form...
1 The browser has become a popular attack vector for implanting code on computer operating systems. Equally critical, important sessions, such as online banking, must be protected ...
Recent advances in virtualization technologies have sparked a renewed interest in the use of kernel and process virtualization as a security mechanism to enforce resource isolatio...
