A common video indexing technique is to segment a video sequence into shots and then select representative key-frames. The process of shot break detection is a fundamental compone...
We present an algorithm to overcome the local maxima problem in estimating the parameters of mixture models. It combines existing approaches from both EM and a robust fitting algo...
In this paper, we present an efficient way to denoise bivariate data like height fields, color pictures or vector fields, while preserving edges and other features. Mixing surface...
We propose a novel model of visual contrast measurement based on segregated ON and OFF pathways. Two driving forces have shaped our investigation: (1) establishing a mechanism sele...
Wheel sinkage is an important indicator of mobile robot mobility in natural outdoor terrains. This paper presents a vision-based method to measure the sinkage of a rigid robot whee...
