Analytic visibility algorithms, for example methods which compute a subdivided mesh to represent shadows, are notoriously unrobust and hard to use in practice. We present a new me...
We propose a new technique for fusing multiple cues to robustly segment an object from its background in video sequences that suffer from abrupt changes of both illumination and po...

This paper proposes a method of using ontology hierarchy in automatic topic identification. The fundamental idea behind this work is to exploit an ontology hierarchical structure i...
We present a new scheme to robustly detect a type of human attentive behavior, which we call frequent change in focus of attention (FCFA), from video sequences. FCFA behavior can b...
If we treated image watermarking as a communication problem using the image as the communication channel, applying error-correcting codes (ECC) to the watermarking system should i...
