Abstract. This paper presents a method for estimating the orientation of planar text surfaces using the edge-direction distribution (EDD) extracted from the image as input to a neu...
Most automatic expression analysis systems attempt to recognize a small set of prototypic expressions (e.g. happiness and anger). Such prototypic expressions, however, occur infre...
We develop an automatic system to analyze subtle changes in upper face expressions based on both permanent facial features (brows, eyes, mouth)andtransient facial features (deepen...
Inspired by recent findings on the similarities between the primary auditory and visual cortex we propose a neural network for speech recognition based on a hierarchical feedforw...

In this paper the sparse coding principle is employed for the representation of multimodal image data, i.e. image intensity and range. We estimate an image basis for frontal face i...
