In this paper, we propose a set of human perceptual cues used jointly to automatically detect image orientation. The cues used are: orientation of faces, position of the sky, brig...

We present a semi-Markov model for recognizing scene text that integrates character and word segmentation with recognition. Using wavelet features, it requires only approximate lo...

— Gait recognition has recently gained attention as an effective approach to identify individuals at a distance from a camera. Most existing gait recognition algorithms assume th...
We address in this paper the problem of segmenting complex handritten pages such as novelist drafts or authorial manuscripts. We propose to use stochastic and contextual models in...
We derive a probabilistic multi-scale model for contour completion based on image statistics. The boundaries of human segmented images are used as "ground truth". A prob...
