The human face has evolved to become the most important source of non-verbal information that conveys our affective, cognitive and mental state to others. Apart from human to human communication facial expressions have also become an indispensable componen ...

We give a randomized 2^{n+o(n)}-time and space algorithm for solving the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) on n-dimensional Euclidean lattices. This improves on the previous fastest algorithm: the deterministic O(4^n)-time and O(2^n)-space algorithm of Miccian ...

When we look at our environment, we primarily pay attention to visually distinctive objects. We refer to these objects as visually important or salient. Our visual system dedicates most of its processing resources to analyzing these salient objects. An ana ...

Creating panoramic images has become a popular feature in modern smart phones, tablets, and digital cameras. A user can create a 360 degree field-of-view photograph from only several images. Quality of the resulting image is related to the number of source ...

Statistical shape and appearance models play an important role in reducing the segmentation processing time of a vertebra and in improving results for 3D model development. Here, we describe the different steps in generating a statistical shape model (SSM) ...

Many privacy protection tools have been proposed for preserving privacy. Tools for protection of visual privacy available today lack either all or some of the important properties that are expected from such tools. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a si ...

We study the statistics of wavelet coefficients of non-Gaussian images, focusing mainly on the behaviour at coarse scales. We assume that an image can be whitened by a fractional Laplacian operator, which is consistent with an

We propose a segmentation method based on the geometric representation of images as surfaces embedded in a higher dimensional space, handling naturally multichannel images. The segmentation is based on an active contour embedded in the image manifold, alon ...

The purpose of Face localization is to determine the coordinates of a face in a given image. It is a fundamental research area in computer vision because it serves, as a necessary first step, any face processing systems, such as automatic face recognition, ...
