Abstract. A popular framework for the interpretation of image sequences is the layers or sprite model, see e.g. [1], [2]. Jojic and Frey [3] provide a generative probabilistic mode...
When the color or gray level of a moving object is very similar to that of the background, motion-based segmentation methods fail. This leads to ambiguous templates for the moving...
Abstract. In the context of multimedia data analysis, it is often necessary to understand what happens in a scene, which can rely on detecting and tracking the different moving obj...
In this study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of using extended light sources for modeling the appearance of an object for varying illumination. Extended light sources have a ra...
In this paper, we propose techniques to make use of two complementary bottom-up features, image edges and texture patches, to guide top-down object segmentation towards higher pre...
