A method based on Principal Component Analysis of the fingernail coloration pattern is presented to infer fingertip force direction during planar contact. Images from 7 subjects...
Kernel Fisher Discriminant Analysis (KFDA) has achieved great success in pattern recognition recently. However, the training process of KFDA is too time consuming (even intractabl...
Most face recognition approaches either assume constant lighting condition or standard facial expressions, thus cannot deal with both kinds of variations simultaneously. This prob...
Within the field of action recognition, features and descriptors are often engineered to be sparse and invariant to transformation. While sparsity makes the problem tractable, it ...
This paper introduces a novel approach for the recognition of a wide vocabulary of Arabic handwritten words. Note that there is an essential difference between the global and anal...
