Active Appearance Models (AAMs) have been popularly used to represent the appearance and shape variations of human faces. Fitting an AAM to images recovers the face pose as well as its deformable shape and varying app...

Image segmentation is a fundamental step in many computervision applications. Generally, the choice of a segmentation algorithm, or parameterization of a given algorithm, is selected at the application level and fixe...

In this paper we propose diffusion distance, a new dissimilarity measure between histogram-based descriptors. We define the difference between two histograms to be a temperature field. We then study the relationship b...

Image matching is an essential task in many computervision applications. It is obvious that thorough utilization of all available information is critical for the success of matching algorithms. However most popular m...

The power of video over still images is the ability to represent dynamic activities. But video browsing and retrieval are inconvenient due to inherent spatio-temporal redundancies, where some time intervals may have n...

In multi-target tracking, the maintaining of the correct identity of targets is challenging. In the presented tracking method, accurate target identification is achieved by incorporating the appearance information of ...

Segmentation involves separating an object from the background. In this work, we propose a novel segmentation method combining image information with prior shape knowledge, within the level-set framework. Following th...

We present a novel multiscale approach that combines segmentation with classification to detect abnormal brain structures in medical imagery, and demonstrate its utility in detecting multiple sclerosis lesions in 3D M...

This paper presents a method for capturing and computing 3D parallax. 3D parallax, as used here, refers to vertical offset from the ground plane, height. The method is based on analyzing shadows of vertical poles (e.g...

We consider visual category recognition in the framework of measuring similarities, or equivalently perceptual distances, to prototype examples of categories. This approach is quite flexible, and permits recognition b...
