Falls are one of the major risks for seniors living alone at home. Computer vision systems, which do not require to wear sensors, offer a new and promising solution for fall detec...
We describe a higher-orderspectralanalysis-basedapproach for detecting people by recognizing human motion such as walking or running. The periodic attribute of human motion lends ...
To achieve a face recognition system robust to the presence of glasses, we have developped a glasses detection and extraction algorithm. Detection is realized using edge informati...
The least squares method is the most commonly used technique for fitting an ellipse through a set of points. However, it has a low breakdown point, which means that it performs p...
A new method for object search is proposed. The proposed scheme is based on matching gradient information around each pixel, computed in the form of orientation codes, rather than...
