In this paper, we propose an unsupervised approach to select representative face samples (models) from raw videos and build an appearance-based face recognition system. The approa...
A new concept and algorithm are presented for noniterative robust estimation of piecewise smooth curves of maximal edge strength in small image windows – typically ¢¡£ to...
Semantic detection and recognition of objects and events contained in a video stream has to be performed in order to provide content-based annotation and retrieval of videos. This...
