This paper proposes an extension to the active contour algorithm for the detection of linear patterns within remote sensing and vibration data. The proposed technique uses an alte...
Reference point detection is an important process for fingerprint analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel feature which is named local axial symmetry (LAS) and present an algo...
We propose a novel statistical approach to detect defects in digitized archive film by using temporal information across a number of frames modeled with an HMM. The HMM is traine...
An approach to postal address detection from webpages is proposed. The webpages are first segmented into text blocks based on their visual similarity. The text content in each bl...
In this work, we present a novel method to detect violent shots in movies. The detection process is split into two views–––the audio and video views. From the audio-view, a w...
