This paper presents a novel face-assisted video coding scheme to enhance the visual quality of the face regions in video telephony applications. A skin-color based face detection ...
A new approach to 3-D profilometry for the white light interferometric (WLI) is presented. We detail a simple way to construct a profiler that uses the fringe contrast degradation...
Human interfaces for computer graphics systems are now evolving towards a total multi-modal approach. Information gathered using visual, audio and motion capture systems are now b...
