We present an algorithm for fast posterior inference in penalized high-dimensional state-space models, suitable in the case where a few measurements are taken in each time step. W...
We describe a method to align ASL video subtitles with a closed-caption transcript. Our alignments are partial, based on spotting words within the video sequence, which consists o...
We propose a 2D model-based approach for tracking human body parts during articulated motion. A human is modeled as a stick figure with thirteen landmarks, and an action is a sequ...
Although analysis of genome rearrangements was pioneered by Dobzhansky and Sturtevant 65 years ago, we still know very little about the rearrangement events that produced the exis...
We present a method that automatically detects chewing events in surveillance video of a subject. Firstly, an Active Appearance Model (AAM) is used to track a subject’s face acr...
