Segmenting Foreground Objects from a Dynamic Textured Background via a Robust Kalman Filter
The algorithm presented in this paper aims to segment the foreground objects in video (e.g., people) given timevarying, textured backgrounds. Examples of time-varying backgrounds ...

Conditional Feature Sensitivity: A Unifying View on Active Recognition and Feature Selection
The objective of active recognition is to iteratively collect the next "best" measurements (e.g., camera angles or viewpoints), to maximally reduce ambiguities in recogn...

Tracking Objects Using Density Matching and Shape Priors
We present a novel method for tracking objects by combining density matching with shape priors. Density matching is a tracking method which operates by maximizing the Bhattacharyy...
