We present a novel framework for the recognition of facial expressions at arbitrary poses that is based on 2D geometric features. We address the problem by first mapping the 2D loc...
In a wide range of business areas dealing with text data streams, including CRM, knowledge management, and Web monitoring services, it is an important issue to discover topic tren...
Figure-ground discrimination is an important problem in computer vision. Previous work usually assumes that the color distribution of the figure can be described by a low dimensio...
This paper proposes an interpolating extension to hidden Markov models (HMMs), which allows more accurate modeling of natural sounds sources. The model is able to produce observat...
This paper presents a new enhanced text extraction algorithm from degraded document images on the basis of the probabilistic models. The observed document image is considered as a...
