Tracking over a long period of time is challenging as the appearance, shape and scale of the object in question may vary. We propose a paradigm of tracking by repeatedly segmentin...
We show how to use a sampling method to find sparsely clad people in static images. People are modeled as an assembly of nine cylindrical segments. Segments are found using an EM ...
Different materials reflect light in different ways, so reflectance is a useful surface descriptor. Existing systems for measuring reflectance are cumbersome, however, and although...
In this paper we propose an extension to the standard Markov Random Field (MRF) model in order to handle layers. Our extension, which we call a Factorial MRF (FMRF), is analogous t...
In this paper, an original motion-based shape error concealment technique, especially useful for object-based video applications in error-prone environments such as mobile network...
