This paper proposes a unified framework for spatiotemporal segmentation of video sequences. A Bayesian network is presented to model the interactions among the motion vector field...
Lips segmentation is a very important step in many applications such as automatic speech reading, MPEG-4 compression, special effects, facial analysis and emotion recognition. In ...

This paper describes an algorithm for the extraction of multiple regions using multiple active contour models (ACMs). The algorithm organizes edge points into strokes and assigns ...
When dealing with ill-posed inverse problems in data analysis, the Bayesian approach allows one to use prior information to guide the result toward reasonable solutions. In this w...
