In this paper we present a probabilistic framework for tracking objects based on local dynamic segmentation. We view the segn to be a Markov labeling process and abstract it as a ...
Skin color is a useful means for human face detection. In this paper, we propose an efficient color compensation method for skin color segmentation under varying lighting conditio...
-- This paper presents an efficient method for the timing verification of concurrent systems, modeled as labeled Timed Petri nets. The verification problems we consider require us ...
