One of the key requirements of augmented reality systems is a robust real-time camera pose estimation. In this paper we present a robust approach, which does neither depend on ofï...
We present a new adaptive algorithm for automatic detection of text from a natural scene. The initial cues of text regions are first detected from the captured image/video. An ada...
Tracking individuals in extremely crowded scenes is a challenging task, primarily due to the motion and appearance variability produced by the large number of people within the sc...
Background modeling is an important component of many vision systems. Existing work in the area has mostly addressed scenes that consist of static or quasi-static structures. When...
This paper compares two methods for object localization from contours: shape context and chamfer matching of templates. In the light of our experiments, we suggest improvements to...
