Image artifacts that result from sensor dust are a common but annoying problem for many photographers. To reduce the appearance of dust in an image, we first formulate a model of ...
Tree-structured probabilistic models admit simple, fast inference. However, they are not well suited to phenomena such as occlusion, where multiple components of an object may dis...
A probabilistic system for recognition of individual objects is presented. The objects to recognize are composed of constellations of features, and features from a same object shar...
Ears are a new biometric with major advantage in that they appear to maintain their structure with increasing age. Expanding on our previous parts-based model, we propose a new wa...
Determining the status of a runway prior to landing is essential for any aircraft, whether manned or unmanned. In this paper, we present a method that can detect moving objects on...
