An automatic algorithm for indexing dialogue scenes in multimedia content is proposed. The content is segmented into dialogue scenes using the state transitions of a hidden Markov...
This work presents a novel people tracking approach, able to cope with frequent shape changes and large occlusions. In particular, the tracks are described by means of probabilist...

Reseachers have verified that clothing provides information about the identity of the individual. To extract features from the clothing, the clothing region first must be localize...
Finite mixture model is a powerful tool in many statistical learning problems. In this paper, we propose a general, structure-preserving approach to reduce its model complexity, w...
When equipped with kernel functions, online learning algorithms are susceptible to the "curse of kernelization" that causes unbounded growth in the model size. To addres...
