In the paper we propose a novel multi-layer Mixed Markov model for detecting relevant changes in registered aerial images taken with significant time differences. The introduced ...
Every-day, the postal sorting systems diffuse several tons of mails. It is noted that the principal origin of mail rejection is related to the failure of address-block localizatio...
Local invariant feature based methods have been proven to be effective in computer vision for object recognition and learning. But for an image, the number of points detected and ...
In this paper, a novel statistical indoor activity recognition algorithm is introduced. While conditional random fields (CRFs) have prominent properties to this task, no optimal ...

Material classification of object surfaces from captured image data is an essential problem in computer vision. The present paper proposes a method for stably classifying the mate...
Acute renal rejection is the most common reason for graft (transplanted kidney) failure after kidney transplantation, and early detection is crucial to survival of function in the...

Graph based semi-supervised learning methods (SSL) implicitly assume that the intrinsic geometry of the data points can be fully specified by an Euclidean distance based local ne...
We propose a novel approach for writer adaptation in a word spotting task. The method exploits the fact that a semi-continuous hidden Markov model separates the word model paramet...
