A Motion Compensation Algorithm Based on Non-Linear Geometric Transformations and Quadtree Decomposition
In this paper we present an efficient very low bit-rate coder for CIF image sequences at 10 frames/s. The proposed algorithm performs motion compensation using a second-order geometric transformation and a qua...

Interaction between High-Level and Low-Level Image Analysis for Semantic Video Object Extraction
The task of extracting a semantic video object is split into two subproblems, namely, object segmentation and region segmentation. Object segmentation relies on a priori assumptions, whereas region segmentation i...

Open AccessDetection and Tracking of Humans and Faces
We present a video analysis framework that integrates prior knowledge in object tracking to automatically detect humans and faces, and can be used to generate abstract representations of video (key-objects and...

Chapter
Multi-view Multi-object Detection and Tracking
Multi-viewtrackers combine data fromdifferent camera views to estimate the temporal evolution of objects across a monitored area. Data to be combined can be represented by object features (such as position, co...
