Indexicality and dynamic attention control in qualitative recognition of assembly actions
Visual recognition of physical actions requires temporal segmentation and identification of action types. Action concepts are analyzed into attention, context, and change. Temporal segmentation is defined as a...

Histogram-based image registration for digital subtraction angiography
A generalized framework for histogram-based similarity measures is presented and applied to the image-enhancement task in digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The class of differentiable, strictly convex wei...

A brain-like approach to multistage hierarchical image processing
Multistage integration of visual information in the brain allows people to respond quickly to most significant stimuli while preserving the ability to recognize small details in the image. Implementation of th...

Algebraic view of grammatical inference
We consider the problem of grammatical inference (GI) for classes of structured documents like summaries, dictionaries, bibliographic data basis, encyclopaedias and so on. The inference is based on examples of...

View-based adaptive affine tracking
We propose a model for view-based adaptive affine tracking of moving objects. We avoid the need for feature-based matching in establishing correspondences through learning landmarks. We use an effective bootst...

A Transformation-Based Mechanism for Face Recognition
This paper proposes a novel mechanism to seamlessly integrate face detection and face recognition. After extracting a human face x from an input image, not only x but also its various kinds of transformations ...

MCMC-Based Multiview Reconstruction of Piecewise Smooth Subdivision Curves with a Variable Number of Control Points
We investigate the automated reconstruction of piecewise smooth 3D curves, using subdivision curves as a simple but flexible curve representation. This representation allows tagging corners to model non-smooth...

Stereo Based 3D Tracking and Scene Learning, Employing Particle Filtering within EM
We present a generative probabilistic model for 3D scenes with stereo views. With this model, we track an object in 3 dimensions while simultaneously learning its appearance and the appearance of the backgroun...

Learning People Movement Model from Multiple Cameras for Behaviour Recognition
In surveillance systems for monitoring people behaviours, it is important to build systems that can adapt to the signatures of people’s tasks and movements in the environment. At the same time, it is important...

Automatic Classification of SPECT Images of Alzheimer’s Disease Patients and Control Subjects
In this article we study the use of SPECT perfusion imaging for the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. We present a classifier based approach that does not need any explicit knowledge about the pathology. We di...

A Constrained Semi-supervised Learning Approach to Data Association
Data association (obtaining correspondences) is a ubiquitous problem in computer vision. It appears when matching image features across multiple images, matching image features to object recognition models and...

A Fast Algorithm to Find All the Maximal Frequent Sequences in a Text
One of the sequential pattern mining problems is to find the maximal frequent sequences in a database with a β support. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm to find all the maximal frequent sequences in a te...

Map-Based Multiple Model Tracking of a Moving Object
In this paper we propose an approach for tracking a moving target using Rao-Blackwellised particle filters. Such filters represent posteriors over the target location by a mixture of Kalman filters, where each...
