We present a 3-level hierarchical model for localizing human bodies in still images from arbitrary viewpoints. We first fit a simple tree-structured model defined on a small landm...

The recognition of facial gestures and expressions in image sequences is an important and challenging problem. Most of the existing methods adopt the following paradigm. First, fa...
Using a saliency measure based on the global property of contour closure, we have developed a method that reliably segments out salient contours bounding unknown objects from real...

We present a vision based, adaptive, decision theoretic model of human facial displays in interactions. The model is a partially observable Markov decision process, or POMDP. A POM...
A novel adaptive and patch-based approach is proposed for image regularization and representation. The method is unsupervised and based on a pointwise selection of small image patc...
