Video retrieval in consumer applications demands high level semantic descriptors such as people's identity. The problem is that in a variety of videos such as home videos, Ho...
Boosting-basedmethods have recently led to the state-ofthe-art face detection systems. In these systems, weak classifiers to be boosted are based on simple, local, Haar-like featu...
Effective and real-time face detection has been made possible by using the method of rectangle Haar-like features with AdaBoost learning since Viola and Jones’ work [12]. In this...
We present a visual saliency detection method and its applications. The proposed method does not require prior knowledge (learning) or any pre-processing step. Local visual descri...
In this paper we address the problem of recognising interactions between two people in realistic scenarios for video retrieval purposes. We develop a per-person descriptor that us...
