We propose to utilize micro features, namely facial marks (e.g., freckles, moles, and scars) to improve face recognition and retrieval performance. Facial marks can be used in thr...
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...
This paper presents a low cost real-time alternative to available commercial human motion capture systems. First, a set of distinguishable markers are placed on several human body...
Application profiling ? the process of monitoring an application to determine the frequency of execution within specific regions ? is an essential step within the design process f...
Recently, a number of watermarking-based intellectual property protection techniques have been proposed. Although they have been applied to different stages in the design process ...
