This paper addresses the application of active contours or snakes for location and tracking of facial features. Conventional snake approaches find the position of the snake by fin...
This paper proposes a fast and accurate method to detect all nearduplicate segments in a video stream. To reduce the computation time while ensuring the detection accuracy equival...
We approach recognition in the framework of deformable shape matching, relying on a new algorithm for finding correspondences between feature points. This algorithm sets up corres...
In typical classification tasks, we seek a function which assigns a label to a single object. Kernel-based approaches, such as support vector machines (SVMs), which maximize the ...
This paper addresses the general single-machine earliness-tardiness problem with distinct release dates, due dates, and unit costs. The aim of this research is to obtain an exact n...
