Statistically Driven Sparse Image Approximation
Finding the sparsest approximation of an image as a sum of basis functions drawn from a redundant dictionary is an NPhard problem. In the case of a dictionary whose elements form ...

Local or Global 3D Face and Facial Feature Tracker
We present in this paper a solution for 3D face and facial feature tracking using canonical correlation analysis and a 3D geometric model. This model is controlled with 17 paramet...

A Grey-Level Image Embedding its Color Palette
In this paper, we propose a method to embed the color information of an image in its corresponding grey-level image. The objective of this work is to allow free access to the grey...

An Adaptive Multiresolution Approach to Fingerprint Recognition
We propose an adaptive multiresolution (MR) approach to the classification of fingerprint images. The system adds MR decomposition in front of a generic classifier consisting of f...

Kernels on Bags of Fuzzy Regions for Fast Object retrieval
We propose in this paper a general kernel framework to deal with database object retrieval embedded in images with heterogeneous background. We use local features computed on fuzz...

Globally Optimal Multimodal Rigid Registration: An Analytic Solution using Edge Information
Current multimodal registration methods almost always rely on local gradient-descent type optimization strategies. Such registration methods often converge to an incorrect local o...

Robust Image Segmentation with Mixtures of Student's t-Distributions
Gaussian mixture models have been widely used in image segmentation. However, such models are sensitive to outliers. In this paper, we consider a robust model for image segmentati...
