In this paper, we introduce the Skellam distribution as a sensor noise model for CCD or CMOS cameras. This is derived from the Poisson distribution of photons that determine the s...
We present a parameter free approach that utilizes multiple cues for image segmentation. Beginning with an image, we execute a sequence of bottom-up aggregation steps in which pix...
This paper proposes a discriminative framework for efficiently aligning images. Although conventional Active Appearance Models (AAM)-based approaches have achieved some success, t...
This paper deals with shading and AAMs. Shading is created by lighting change. It can be of two types: selfshading and external shading. The effect of self-shading can be explicit...
We present a Bayesian framework for action recognition through ballistic dynamics. Psycho-kinesiological studies indicate that ballistic movements form the natural units for human...
