This paper proposes to use zooming function of digital cameras for robust character recognition and to control focal length for improving the performance even in dim light conditi...
The objective of this work is to recognize all the frontal faces of a character in the closed world of a movie or situation comedy, given a small number of query faces. This is ch...
We describe an enhanced method for the selection of optimal sensor actions in a probabilistic state estimation framework. We apply this to the selection of optimal focal lengths f...

Detecting objects in complex scenes while recovering the scene layout is a critical functionality in many vision-based applications. Inspired by the work of [18], we advocate the ...
We describe experimental results for unsupervised recognition of the textual contents of book-images using fully automatic mutual-entropy-based model adaptation. Each experiment s...
