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 ...
Premature birth has been associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, the relation between such outcomes and brain growth in the neonatal period has not yet been fully elucidated. This study investigates longitudinal brain development between ...
Discrete Choice Models (DCMs) have a distinct advantage over Machine Learning (ML) classification algorithms, in that they employ a highly interpretable linear structure. However, a key drawback of DCMs compared to ML is the need to specify the utility fun ...
The task of Heterogeneous Face Recognition consists in matching face images that are sensed in different domains, such as sketches to photographs (visual spectra images), thermal images to photographs or near-infrared images to photographs. In this work we ...
In this paper, we propose a novel temporal spiking recurrent neural network (TSRNN) to perform robust action recognition in videos. The proposed TSRNN employs a novel spiking architecture which utilizes the local discriminative features from high-confidenc ...
Background: Active upper-limb prostheses are used to restore important hand functionalities, such as grasping. In conventional approaches, a pattern recognition system is trained over a number of static grasping gestures. However, training a classifier in ...
