This work addresses two common problems in search, frequently occurring with underspecified user queries: the top-ranked results for such queries may not contain documents relevan...
Abstract. We propose a graph based method to improve the performance of person queries in large news video collections. The method benefits from the multi-modal structure of videos...
The ability to detect a persons unconstrained hand in a natural video sequence has applications in sign language, gesture recognition and HCI. This paper presents a novel, unsuper...
Abstract. We propose a homography estimation method from the contours of planar regions. Standard projective invariants such as cross ratios or canonical frames based on hot points...
In Sign Language recognition, one of the problems is to collect enough training data. Almost all of the statistical methods used in Sign Language Recognition suffer from this prob...
