This paper proposes two simple and powerful algorithms to automatically paint Celtic knots with aesthetic colors. The shape of the knot is generated from its dual graph as present...
Audiovisual performance is a fertile area for creative expression, an intersection of experimental cinema and computer music that has seen a groundswell of interest in recent year...
Ambient occlusion is a powerful technique that mimics indirect global illumination at a fraction of the cost. In this paper, we introduce a new ambient occlusion technique based o...
We use a set of photographs showing similar scenes as a model for a single photograph this scene. A distance measure for this model is defined by correlating the neigborhoods of p...
Recent work in non-photorealistic rendering has produced results comparable to hand-drawn artistic images. Inspiration for such techniques has come from many traditional artistic ...

This paper reports on a new technique for unconstrained license plate detection in a surveillance context. The proposed algorithm quickly finds license plates by performing the fo...
An important aspect of spectral image analysis is identification of materials present in the object or scene being imaged. Enabling technologies include image enhancement, segment...

In video surveillance, automatic methods for scene understanding and activity modeling can exploit the high redundancy of object trajectories observed over a long period of time. ...
