In video sequence processing, shadow remains a major source of error for object segmentation. Traditional methods of shadow removal are mainly based on colour difference threshold...
In this paper we propose an extension to the standard Markov Random Field (MRF) model in order to handle layers. Our extension, which we call a Factorial MRF (FMRF), is analogous t...
In this paper, a motion-based approach for detecting high-level semantic events in video sequences is presented. Its main characteristic is its generic nature, i.e. it can be dire...
In the H.264/AVC video coding standard, motion compensation can be performed by partitioning macroblocks into square or rectangular sub-macroblocks in a quadtree decomposition. Th...

In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
