We describe a new invariant-based data model for image databases under our approach for shape-based retrieval. The data model relies on contours description of the image shape, an...
Game quantification is an expressive concept and has been studied in model theory and descriptive set theory, especially in relation to infinitary logics. Automatic structures on t...
Constrained local models (CLMs) have recently demonstrated good performance in non-rigid object alignment/tracking in comparison to leading holistic approaches (e.g., AAMs). A maj...
Wyner-Ziv (WZ) video coding ? a particular case of distributed video coding (DVC) ? is a new video coding paradigm based on two major Information Theory results: the Slepian-Wolf ...
EM algorithm is a very popular iteration-based method to estimate the parameters of Gaussian Mixture Model from a large observation set. However, in most cases, EM algorithm is no...
