Given a video sequence, obtaining accurate layer segmentation and alpha matting is very important for various applications. However, when a non-textured or smooth area is present ...
A new method for visual tracking of articulated objects is presented. Analyzing articulated motion is challenging because the dimensionality increase potentially demands tremendou...
Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering (MCTF) has proved to be an efficient coding tool in the design of open-loop scalable video codecs. In this paper we propose a MCTF video codi...
An efficient scalable predictive coding method is proposed for the Wyner-Ziv problem, using nested lattice quantization followed by multi-layer Slepian-Wolf coders (SWC) with laye...
Palmprint recognition is an active member of biometrics in recent years. State-of-the-art algorithms of palmprint recognition describe appearances of palmprints efficiently throug...
