This paper presents a new spatial-HMM(SHMM)for automatically classifying and annotating natural images. Our model is a 2D generalization of the traditional HMM in the sense that b...
This paper proposes an algorithm for distributed classification, based on a SVM scheme. The contribution of each support vector is approximated by low complexity distributed thre...
Abstract. In this paper we present a method suitable to be used for human tracking as a temporal prior in a particle filtering framework such as CONDENSATION [5]. This method is f...
We propose a novel approach for finding text in images by using ridges at several scales. A text string is modelled by a ridge at a coarse scale representing its center line and n...
Recognizing a person’s motion is intuitive for humans but represents a challenging problem in machine vision. In this paper, we present a multi-disciplinary framework for recogn...
