We propose a region-based method to extract semantic foreground regions from color video sequences with static backgrounds. First, we introduce a new distance measure for backgrou...
It is well known that the text that appears in a video scene or is graphically added to it is an important source of semantic information for indexing and retrieval, notably in the...
In this paper we present a continuous surface model to describe the interconnect geometric variation, which improves the currently used model for better accuracy while not increas...
We propose an unsupervised, probabilistic method for learning visual feature hierarchies. Starting from local, low-level features computed at interest point locations, the method c...
This paper presents a robust image watermarking scheme for multimedia copyright protection. In this work, host image is partitioned into four sub images. Watermark image such as `l...
