We propose a method to detect objects and patterns in textures on general surfaces. Our approach applies the Chan?Vese variational model for active contours without edges to the p...
Active contours or snakes have been extensively utilized in handling image segmentation and classification problems. In traditional active contour models, snake initialization is ...
In a known environment, objects may be tracked in multiple views using a set of background models. Stereo-based models can be illumination-invariant, but often have undefined valu...

Image decomposition consists of splitting an image into two or more components. One component is piecewise smooth and models object shapes. Another component consists of the textu...
In this paper, we present a novel approach for face recognition and authentication based on dimensional surface matching. While most of existing methods use facial intensity image...
