Stripes are common sub-structures of text characters, and the scale of these stripes varies little within a word. This scale consistency thus provides us with a useful feature for...
Many approaches to moving object detection for traffic monitoring and video surveillance proposed in the literature are based on background suppression methods. How to correctly a...

We present a model for the lips using the Active Shape Model (ASM) based on B?ezier Curves which can capture the dynamics of the lips efficiently. The curves are defined only by a...
We present a multivariate statistical model to represent the human skin color. In our approach, there are no limitations regarding if the person is white or black, once the model ...
The research summarised here is working towards automatic control systems for cameras, in support of remote meetings. Progress is reported on several fronts: use of active contour...
In Computer Vision, two-dimensional shape classifcation is a complex and well studied topic, often basic for three-dimensional object recognition. Object contours are a widely cho...
In this article a texturefeature extraction scheme based on M-band waveletpacketframes is investigated. Thefeatures so extracted are usedfor segmentation of satellite images which...
