Describing and Matching 2D Shapes by Their Points of Mutual Symmetry
A novel shape descriptor is introduced. It groups pairs of points that share a geometrical property that is based on their mutual symmetry. The descriptor is visualized as a diagon...

Level-Set Curve Particles
In many applications it is necessary to track a moving and deforming boundary on the plane from infrequent, sparse measurements. For instance, each of a set of mobile observers may...

Robust Attentive Behavior Detection by Non-linear Head Pose Embedding and Estimation
We present a new scheme to robustly detect a type of human attentive behavior, which we call frequent change in focus of attention (FCFA), from video sequences. FCFA behavior can b...
