Scale invariant face recognition using probabilistic similarity measure
In video surveillance, the size of face images is very small. However, few works have been done to investigate scale invariant face recognition. Our experiments on appearance-base...

Static text region detection in video sequences using color and orientation consistencies
Motion compensated error of the static text in the frame rate conversion (FRC) is most annoying artifact because people cannot read it. In this paper, we present a novel static te...

Specularity removal and relighting of 3D object model for virtual exhibition
To create photorealistic three-dimensional (3D) model of real objects is a challenging computer vision problem. While there are methods for 3D digitization of objects with high ge...
