This work introduces a new pattern recognition model for segmenting and tracking lip contours in video sequences. We formulate the problem as a general nonrigid object tracking me...
We present new primal-dual algorithms for several network design problems. The problems considered are the generalized Steiner tree problem (GST), the directed Steiner tree proble...
We discuss incremental training of support vector machines in which we approximate the regions, where support vector candidates exist, by truncated hypercones. We generate the trun...
One of the key points in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) is the learning of the probabilistic graphical model used to guide the search: the richer the model the more ...
Wireless sensor networks have recently been suggested for many surveillance applications such as object monitoring, path protection, or area coverage. Since the sensors themselves...
