Video matting, or layer extraction, is a classic inverse problem in computer vision that involves the extraction of foreground objects, and the alpha mattes that describe their op...
Abstract—In this paper, we present a novel languageindependent algorithm for extracting text-lines from handwritten document images. Our algorithm is based on the seam carving ap...
The recent revolution of digital camera technology has resulted in much larger collections of images. Image browsing techniques thus become increasingly important for overview and...
In this work we present a new technique of facial-image retrieval using constrained independent component analysis (cICA). We have employed cICA for the online extraction of those...
We describe a learning based method for recovering 3D human body pose from single images and monocular image sequences. Our approach requires neither an explicit body model nor pri...
