Component-based Face Detection
We present a component-based, trainable system for detecting frontal and near-frontal views of faces in still gray images. The system consists of a two-level hierarchy of Support ...

Feature Reduction and Hierarchy of Classifiers for Fast Object Detection in Video Images
We present a two-step method to speed-up object detection systems in computer vision that use Support Vector Machines (SVMs) as classifiers. In a first step we perform feature red...

Adaptive Quasiconformal Kernel Metric for Image Retrieval
This paper presents a new approach to ranking relevant images for retrieval. Distance in the feature space associated with a kernel is used to rank relevant images. An adaptive qu...

Combining Two-view Constraints For Motion Estimation
In this paper we describe two methods for estimating the motion parameters of an image sequence. For a sequence of images, the global motion can be described by ???? independent m...

A Weighted Non-Negative Matrix Factorization for Local Representations
This paper presents an improvement of the classical Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) approach, for dealing with local representations of image objects. NMF, when applied to...

Affine Arithmetic Based Estimation of Cue Distributions in Deformable Model Tracking
In this paper we describe a statistical method for the integration of an unlimited number of cues within a deformable model framework. We treat each cue as a random variable, each...

Rectifying Transformations That Minimize Resampling Effects
Image rectification is the process of warping a pair of stereo images in order to align the epipolar lines with the scan-lines of the images. Once a pair of images is rectified, s...
