Rigorous Accuracy Bounds for Calibrated Stereo Reconstruction
We deal with the problem of obtaining rigorous bounds to the position of 3-D points computed by stereo triangulation when both the camera matrix and the image points are affected ...

Learning Sample Subspace with Application to Face Detection
In this paper, we present a novel maximum correlation sample subspace method and apply it to human face detection [1] in still images. The algorithm starts by projecting all the t...

Laser Stripe Peak Detector for 3D Scanners. A FIR Filter Approach
The accuracy of a 3D reconstruction using laser scanners is significantly determined by the detection of the laser stripe. Since the energy pattern of such a stripe corresponds to...

Combining Null Space-based Gabor Features for Face Recognition
We propose a novel face recognition strategy combining various discriminating Gabor features in multi-scales and multi-orientations. A bank of well-chosen Gabor filters is applied...

Hierarchical Object Indexing and Sequential Learning
This work is about scene interpretation in the sense of detecting and localizing instances from multiple object classes. We concentrate on object indexing: generate an over-comple...

Invariants to Convolution with Circularly Symmetric PSF
We introduce a new class of moment-based features invariant to rotation and to convolution with an unknown point-spread function having circular symmetry. Unlike the invariants pu...

Estimation of Arbitrary Camera Motion in MPEG Videos
Several algorithms have been proposed to solve the problem of camera motion estimation in digital videos. However, the distinction between translation along the xaxis (y-axis) and...

Improving Cut Detection in MPEG Videos by GOP-Oriented Frame Difference Normalization
The detection of abrupt shot changes ("cuts") in videos is a basic step in video content analysis. Many cut detection algorithms based on histogram differences have been...
