Recognizing hand gestures using dynamic Bayesian network
In this paper, we describe a dynamic Bayesian network or DBN based approach to both two-hand gestures and onehand gestures. Unlike wired glove-based approaches, the success of cam...

Facial image analysis using local feature adaptation prior to learning
Many facial image analysis methods rely on learningbased techniques such as Adaboost or SVMs to project classifiers based on the selection of local image filters (e.g., Haar and...

3D face recognition from multiple images: A shape-from-motion approach
In this article we explore the use of methodologies for 3D reconstruction from multiple images to recognize faces. We try to devise a strategy to tackle the problem of recognizing...

Complex human motion estimation using visibility
This paper presents a novel algorithm for estimating complex human motion from 3D video. We base our algorithm on a model-based approach which uses a complete surface mesh of a 3D...

A discriminative approach to frame-by-frame head pose tracking
We present a discriminative approach to frame-by-frame head pose tracking that is robust to a wide range of illuminations and facial appearances and that is inherently immune to a...

Statistical body height estimation from a single image
We address the problem of estimating a person’s body height from a single uncalibrated image. The novelty of our work lies in that we handle two difficult cases not previously ...

Unsupervised clustering for google searches of celebrity images
How do we identify images of the same person in photo albums? How can we find images of a particular celebrity using web image search engines? These types of tasks require solvin...

Emotional contagion for unseen bodily expressions: Evidence from facial EMG
Emotional contagion refers to the tendency to automatically mimic and synchronize our facial expressions with those of another person. Recent EMG studies have shown that emotional...

Image-set matching using a geodesic distance and cohort normalization
An image-set based face recognition algorithm is proposed that exploits the full geometrical interpretation of Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). CCA maximizes the correlation ...
