In this paper we present an improved Active Shape Model (ASM) for facial features extraction. The original ASM developed by Cootes et al. [1] suffers from factors such as, poor mod...

A lapped biorthogonal transform adapted for local directionality of an image is proposed. The proposed transform consists of overlapping basis functions and non-overlapping basis ...
We consider the problem of finding similarities in protein structure databases. Our techniques extract feature vectors on triplets of SSEs (Secondary Structure Elements). Later, ...
To separate object motion from camera motion in an aerial video, consecutive frames are registered at their planar background. Feature points are selected in consecutive frames an...
Abstract. We present an alignment framework for object detection using a hierarchy of 3D polygonal models. One difficulty with alignment methods is that the high-dimensional transf...
