Abstract--Object tracking systems require accurate segmentation of the objects from the background for effective tracking. Motion segmentation or optical flow can be used to segmen...
Video scenes containing multiple objects can potentially achieve higher degree of compression and better visual quality with individual coding for each object. Not always are vide...
We describe a new hierarchical representation for twodimensional objects that captures shape information at multiple levels of resolution. This representation is based on a hierar...
