It is well known that frame independence assumption is a fundamental limitation of current HMM based speech recognition systems. By treating each speech frame independently, HMMs ...
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...
Sign language is used for communicating to people with hearing difficulties. Recogntion of a sign language image sequence is challenging because of the variety of hand shapes and ...
— In this paper, we propose a multi-level shadow identification scheme which is generally applicable without restrictions on the number of light sources, illumination conditions...

Markov random field (MRF) models, including conditional random field models, are popular in computer vision. However, in order to be computationally tractable, they are limited to ...
