We propose a time-warping algorithm for recognizing finger actions by a camera. In the proposed method, an input image sequence is aligned to the reference sequences by phase-sync...
In this paper, we proposes an effective and novel approach to recognize subtle facial expression method which is facial expression deformation. The proposed method deforms subtle ...
Photometric stereo is a method of recovering surface normals (needle map) from images. The surface integral of surface normals is used to reconstruct a depth map; however, the dep...

Optical mark sensing, i.e., detecting whether a "bubble" has been filled in, may seem straightforward. However, on US election ballots the shape, intensity, size and pos...

In this paper, we propose a novel component-wise smoothing algorithm that constructs a hierarchy (or family) of smoothened log-likelihood surfaces. Our approach first smoothens th...
Visual dictionaries have been successfully applied to "bags-of-points" image representations for generic object recognition. Usually the choice of low-level interest reg...
In the field of computer vision, many kinds of camera parameter estimation methods have been proposed. As one of these methods, an extrinsic camera parameter estimation method tha...
This paper describes a combination of an automated image acquisition method and a probabilistic tracking method for analysis of the 3D microstructure of a sheet of paper. A protot...

Often the deployed pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras undergo a pure pan or pure tilt rotation. This is a degenerate case for most of the PTZ camera calibration methods. That is, under t...
Abstract: Kernel classifiers based on Support Vector Machines (SVM) have achieved state-ofthe-art results in several visual classification tasks, however, recent publications and d...
