Automatic video browsing requires algorithms for detecting a variety of events, including production effects (e.g., scene breaks and captions) and moving objects. We present new m...
Stereo sequences promise to be a powerful method for segmenting images for applications such as tracking human figures. We present a method of statistical background modeling for ...
