Motion vector prediction in multiview video coding
In video coding, motion vectors always account for a large number of bits and affect coding efficiency largely. In this paper, we propose an efficient motion vector prediction algo...

Range-enhanced active foreground extraction
We describe a new technique that uses active scene illumination to perform foreground-background segmentation and recover partial HDR information. We explore the fact that relativ...

A multichannel approach to metric-based SAR autofocus
The autofocus problem in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is considered. We precisely characterize the multichannel nature of the SAR autofocus problem by constructing a low-dimensi...

Real time facial expression recognition from image sequences using support vector machines
In this paper, two novel real-time methods are proposed for facial expression recognition in image sequences. The user manually places some of the Candide grid's points to th...

Explicit contour model for vehicle tracking with automatic hypothesis validation
This paper addresses the problem of vehicle tracking under a single static, uncalibrated camera without any constraints on the scene or on the motion direction of vehicles. We int...

A fingerprint recognition algorithm using phase-based image matching for low-quality fingerprints
A major approach for fingerprint recognition today is to extract minutiae from fingerprint images and to perform fingerprint matching based on the number of corresponding minutiae ...

The impulse responses of block shift-invariant systems and their use for demosaicing algorithms
Shift-invariant linear algorithms can be described completely by the algorithm's response to an impulse input. The so called impulse response can be used as filter kernels wh...

A weight-adaptive dynamic model for shape segmentation
Physically based dynamic models are able to describe variable shapes without prior training. Their behaviour to find an object is intuitive, which facilitates corrections of false...

Fast trifocal tensor estimation using virtual parallax
We present a computationally efficient method for estimating the trifocal tensor corresponding to three images acquired by a freely moving camera. The proposed method represents p...
