We propose a novel adaptive technique for detecting moving shadows and distinguishing them from moving objects in video sequences. Most methods for detecting shadows work in a stat...
We present a compressed domain scheme that is able to recognize and localize actions in real-time1 . The recognition problem is posed as performing an action video query on a test ...
Abstract--Large-margin methods, such as support vector machines (SVMs), have been very successful in classification problems. Recently, maximum margin discriminant analysis (MMDA) ...
We apply independent component analysis (ICA) for extracting an optimal basis to the problem of finding efficient features for a speaker. The basis functions learned by the algori...
Image content analysis has become an important issue in multimedia processing. Region-based image retrieval systems attempt to reduce the gap between high-level semantics and low-l...
