Boosting based detection methods have successfully been used for robust detection of faces and pedestrians. However, a very large amount of labeled examples are required for train...
In the 2006 U.S. election, it was estimated that over 66 million people would be voting on direct recording electronic (DRE) systems in 34% of the nation's counties [8]. Alth...
Nearest neighbor (NN) classification assumes locally constant class conditional probabilities, and suffers from bias in high dimensions with a small sample set. In this paper, we p...
A user authentication system using "unclear images" as pass-images has been proposed, in which only legitimate users can understand their meaning by viewing the original...
The mean-shift (MS) algorithm is widely used in object tracking because of its speed and simplicity. However, it assumes certain overlap of object appearance and smooth change in ...
This paper presents a highly accurate and efficient method for crack detection using percolation-based image processing. The detection of cracks in concrete surfaces during the ma...
