We consider the problem of localizing the articulated and deformable shape of a walking person in a single view. We represent the non-rigid 2D body contour by a Bayesian graphical...
Bayesian estimation in nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems has been addressed for a long time. Among other solutions, Particle Filtering (PF) algorithms propagate in time a Mon...
This paper considers the problem of Bayesian inference in dynamical models with time-varying dimension. These models have been studied in the context of multiple target tracking pr...
Simulated annealing (SA) and deterministic continuation are well-known generic approaches to global optimization. Deterministic continuation is computationally attractive but produ...
