Visual tracking using active contours is usually accomplished in a static framework. The active contour tracks the object of interest in a given frame of an image sequence, and th...
Background modeling is an important component of many vision systems. Existing work in the area has mostly addressed scenes that consist of static or quasi-static structures. When...
The goal of this work is to take an image such as the one in Figure 1(a), detect a human figure, and localize his joints and limbs (b) along with their associated pixel masks (c)....

We develop a new framework for the quantitative analysis of shapes of planar curves. Shapes are modeled on elastic strings that can be bent, stretched or compressed at different r...
Single 2D line drawing is a straightforward method to illustrate 3D objects. The faces of an object depicted by a line drawing give very useful information for the reconstruction ...
Image composition (or mosaicing) has attracted a growing attention in recent years as one of the main elements in video analysis and representation. In this paper we deal with the...

Recognition of a person from gait has been a recent focus in computer vision. It is one biometric source that can be acquired at a distance. At this nascent stage of gait recognit...
Variation in object shape is an important visual cue for deformable object recognition and classification. In this paper, we present an approach to model gradual changes in the ?-...
Photometric methods in computer vision require calibration of the camera's radiometric response, and previous works have addressed this problem using multiple registered imag...
