Local image descriptors that are highly discriminative,
computational efficient, and with low storage footprint have
long been a dream goal of computer vision research. In this

Efficient and accurate fitting of Active Appearance
Models (AAM) is a key requirement for many applications.
The most efficient fitting algorithm today is Inverse Compositional

A prototype-based approach is introduced for action
recognition. The approach represents an action as a se-
quence of prototypes for efficient and flexible action match-
ing in ...
This paper addresses the problem of estimating human body pose in static images. This problem is challenging due to the high dimensional state space of body poses, the presence of...
Many computer vision applications, such as scene analysis and medical image interpretation, are ill-suited for traditional classification where each image can only be associated w...
