In this paper we describe a multi-strategy approach to improving semantic extraction from news video. Experiments show the value of careful parameter tuning, exploiting multiple fe...

Path modeling for video surveillance is an active area of research. We address the issue of Euclidean path modeling in a single camera for activity monitoring in a multicamera vid...
Salient areas in natural scenes are generally regarded as the candidates of attention focus in human eyes, which is the key stage in object detection. In computer vision, many mod...
Most existing techniques for analyzing face images assume that the faces are at near-frontal poses. Generalizing to non-frontal faces is often difficult, due to a dearth of groun...
We propose a new method for human action recognition from video sequences using latent topic models. Video sequences are represented by a novel “bag-of-words” representation, w...
