Gait is an important biometric modality for recognizing humans. Unlike other biometrics, human gait can be captured at a distance which makes it an unobtrusive method for recognition. In this paper, an unrestricted ga...

It is standard practice to use benchmark datasets for comparing meaningfully the performance of a number of competing speaker identification systems. Generally, such datasets consist of speech recordings from different speakers made at a single point of time, typically in the same language. That is, the training and test sets both consist of speech recorded at the same point of time in the same language over the same recording channel. This is generally not the case in real-life applications. In this paper, we introduce a new database consisting of speech recordings of 105 speakers, made over four sessions, in two languages and simultaneously over two channels. This database provides scope for experimentation regarding loss in efficiency due to possible mismatch in language, channel and recording session. Results of experiments with MFCC-based GMM speaker models are presented to highlight the need of such benchmark datasets for identifying robust speaker identification systems.
The problem of road segment extraction from high resolution satellite or aerial images has been considered in this paper. Efficient extraction of road segments is a difficult task due to the problems regarding image a...

This paper presents a finite mixture model that involves a pair-copula based construction of a multivariate distribution. The advantage of such a model is that the margins and the dependence structures are de-coupled ...

Algorithms for detection of repeating patterns in images often assume that the repetition is regular and highly similar across the instances. Approximate repetitions are also of interest in many domains such as hand c...
