We present algorithms for improved Viterbi decoding for the case of hidden semi-Markov models. By carefully constructing directed acyclic graphs, we pose the decoding problem as t...
The multimodal neighbourhood signature (MNS) method has given acceptable results both for the colour-based image retrieval and the object recognition task. Local colour content is...
Background modeling is an essential and important part of many high-level video processing applications. Recently, the Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) has been introduced f...

Kernel logistic regression models, like their linear counterparts, can be trained using the efficient iteratively reweighted least-squares (IRWLS) algorithm. This approach suggest...
We present a parallel implementation of a probabilistic algorithm for real time tracking of segments in noisy edge images. Given an initial solution ?a set of segments that reason...
