This paper presents a bottom-up tracking algorithm for surveillance applications where speed and reliability in the case of multiple matches and occlusions are major concerns. The...
—In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model, active volume model (AVM), for object boundary extraction. It is a dynamic “object” model whose manifestation includes a ...
A feature extraction system based on artificial life concepts is presented. The system provides automatic character feature extraction through the local actions of autonomous feat...
We address the issue of segmenting multiple textured objects in presence of a background texture. The proposed technique is based on Geodesic Active Contour (GAC) and can segment m...
For the purpose of Multimodal Meeting Manager Project (M4), an approach based on face and a hand tracking is proposed. The technique essentially includes skin color detection, seg...
