Makeup is a simple and easy instrument that can alter the appearance of a person’s face, and hence, create a presentation attack on face recognition (FR) systems. These attacks, especially the ones mimicking ageing, are difficult to detect due to their clo ...
Recovering a person's height from a single image is important for virtual garment fitting, autonomous driving and surveillance. However, it is also very challenging without absolute scale information. Here, we examine the rarely addressed case, where camer ...
With ever greater computational resources and more accessible software, deep neural networks have become ubiquitous across industry and academia.
Their remarkable ability to generalize to new samples defies the conventional view, which holds that complex, ...
Estimating the 3D poses of rigid and articulated bodies is one of the fundamental problems of Computer Vision. It has a broad range of applications including augmented reality, surveillance, animation and human-computer interaction. Despite the ever-growin ...
In recent years, Machine Learning based Computer Vision techniques made impressive progress. These algorithms proved particularly efficient for image classification or detection of isolated objects. From a probabilistic perspective, these methods can predi ...
Feature detection and description constitute important steps of many computer vision applications such as object detection and panorama stitching. Since those steps are computationally heavy, they might occupy significant portion of the full operation. Alt ...
Thanks to the digital preservation of cultural heritage materials, multimedia tools (e.g., based on automatic visual processing) considerably ease the work of scholars in the humanities and help them to perform quantitative analysis of their data. In this ...
