Tracking features on a moving object using local image bases
This paper presents a new method for tracking feature points on the textureless surface of a moving object. We employ a local image basis as a descriptor of each point for dealing...

Geometric constraints on 2D action models for tracking human body
We propose a 2D model-based approach for tracking human body parts during articulated motion. A human is modeled as a stick figure with thirteen landmarks, and an action is a sequ...

Region-based active contours and sparse representations for texture segmentation
In this paper we propose a rigorous framework for texture image segmentation relying on region-based active contours (RBAC) and sparse texture representation. Such representations...
