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 ...

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...
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...

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...
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...
Modeling subspaces of a distribution of interest in high dimensional spaces is a challenging problem in pattern analysis. In this paper, we present a novel framework for pose inva...
Active contour and surface models, also known as deformable models, constitute a class of powerful segmentation techniques. Geometric deformable models implemented via level-set m...
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...

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...
