In extended video sequences, individual frames are grouped into shots which are defined as a sequence taken by a single camera, and related shots are grouped into scenes which are...
We describe a simple and robust method for surface mesostructure acquisition. Our method builds on the observation that specular reflection is a reliable visual cue for surface me...
In this paper we study face recognition across ages within a real passport photo verification task. First, we propose using the gradient orientation pyramid for this task. Discard...
Abstract. In this paper, we introduce background cut, a high quality and realtime foreground layer extraction algorithm. From a single video sequence with a moving foreground objec...
The performance of the acoustic models is highly reflective on the overall performance of any continuous speech recognition system. Hence generation of an accurate and robust acou...
