1 We present a functional data analysis (FDA) based method to statistically model continuous signs of the American Sign Language (ASL) for use in the recognition of signs in contin...
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 ...
This paper investigates the appearance manifold of facial expression: embedding image sequences of facial expression from the high dimensional appearance feature space to a low dim...
The distribution of geometric features is anisotropic by its nature. Intrinsic properties of surfaces such as normal curvatures, for example, varies with direction. In this paper ...
Significant research has been devoted to detecting people
in images and videos. In this paper we describe a human detection
method that augments widely used edge-based features
