Two-dimensional and three-dimensional coordinate systems are the basic graphics symbols in many graphical documents. A robust coordinate system detection scheme is needed in order...
Most illuminant estimation algorithms worked on point light sources or directional light sources. Little attempt has been made, however, to estimate area light sources. In this pa...
Face recognition is characteristically different from regular pattern recognition and, therefore, requires a different discriminant analysis other than linear discriminant analysi...
This paper investigates three different rejection strategies for offline handwritten sentence recognition. The rejection strategies are implemented as a postprocessing step of a H...
This paper addresses the issue of tracking translation and rotation simultaneously. Starting with a kernel-based spatial-spectral model for object representation, we define an ?-n...
A multiblock-fusion scheme for face recognition is proposed in this paper. Three face recognition algorithms, i.e. probabilistic match, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Disc...
Figure-ground discrimination is an important problem in computer vision. Previous work usually assumes that the color distribution of the figure can be described by a low dimensio...
We propose methods to super-resolve compressed video sequences that may consist of frames with missing blocks of pixels in addition to compression artifacts. Different from tradit...
This paper presents a new surface reconstruction method that extends previous carving methods for non-Lambertian objects by integrating the smoothness and image information of dif...
This paper presents a novel extension of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs): type-2 fuzzy HMMs (type-2 FHMMs). The advantage of this extension is that it can handle both randomness and f...
