In this paper, we propose a story unit extraction method using contextual information in video shots. We divide the contextual information into two categories: local and global co...
This paper describes a method for camera motion estimation based on real endoscope images and CT images for an endoscope navigation system. We have developed an endoscope navigati...

The tree-structured wavelet transform has received a lot of attention and has found successful applications in signal denoising, image coding, image analysis, etc. In this paper, ...
An algorithm is presented for 3-D reconstruction from optical flow observed by an uncalibrated camera. We show that by incorporating a statistical model of image noise, we can not...
A video stream consists of a number of shots each of which has different boundary types such as cut, fade, and dissolve. Many previous approaches can find the cut boundary without...

In this paper, we propose a method of estimating camera parameters for annotating 3D virtual objects with a wearable vision system. The proposed method tracks natural feature poin...
A three-layer framework is proposed for cooperative distributed face tracking. In this framework, multiple distributed cameras cooperate both for stable face tracking and for effe...
IAPR Workshop on Machine Vision and Applications, pp. 455-458, 2000, Tokyo, Japan In this paper, we integrate the model-based tracking and local contexture (temporal and spatial) ...
In this paper, we investigate the behavior of Gabor responses at automatically located facial feature points for face recognition. In our approach, a set of feature points on the ...
A new method for object search is proposed. The proposed scheme is based on matching gradient information around each pixel, computed in the form of orientation codes, rather than...
