The use of visual information derived from accurate lip extraction, can provide features invariant to noise perturbation for speech recognition systems and can be also used in a w...
Image texture can arise not only from surface albedo variations (2D texture) but also from surface height variations (3D texture). Since the appearance of 3D texture depends on th...
In this paper, we introduce a novel discriminative feature space which is efficient not only for face detection but also for recognition. The face representation is based on local...
Local appearance models in the neighborhood of salient image features, together with local and/or global geometric constraints, serve as the basis for several recent and effective...
