Automatic Face Recognition from Skeletal Remains
- The ability to determine the identity of a skull found at a crime scene is of critical importance to the law enforcement community. Traditional clay-based methods attempt to reconstruct the face so as to enable identification of the deceased by members of the general public. However, these reconstru

Towards a Unified Framework for Tracking and Analysis of Human Motion
- We propose a framework for detecting, tracking and analyzing non-rigid motion based on learned motion patterns. The framework features an appearance based approach to represent the spatial information and Hidden Markov Models' (HMM) to encode the temporal dynamics' of the time varying visual pattern

Automatic Acquisition and Initialization of Kinematic Models
- We extract and initialize kinematic models from monocular visual data from the ground up without any manual initialization, adaptation or prior model knowledge. Visual analysis, classification and tracking of articulated motion is challenging due to the difficulties involved in separating noise and

Prosody Based Co-analysis of Deictic Gestures and Speech in Weather Narration Broadcast
- Although speech and gesture recognition has been studied extensively all the successful attempts of combining them in the unified framework were semantically motivated, e.g., keyword co-occurrence. Such formulations inherited the complexity of natural language processing. This paper presents a stati

What are customers looking at
- Computer vision approaches for retail applications can provide value far beyond the common domain of loss prevention. Gaining insight into the movement and behaviors of shoppers is of high interest for marketing, merchandizing, store operations and data mining. Of particular interest is the process

Adaptive Texture and Color Segmentation for Tracking Moving Objects
- Color segmentation is a very popular technique for real-time object tracking. However,even with adaptive color segmentation schemes, under varying environmental conditions in video sequences, the tracking tends to be unreliable. To overcome this problem, many multiple cue fusion techniques have been

A Real-Time Framework for Natural Multimodal Interaction with Large Screen Displays
- This paper presents a framework for designing a natural multimodal human computer interaction (HCI) system. The core of the proposed framework is a principled method for combining information derived from audio and visual cues. To achieve natural interaction, both audio and visual modalities are fus

Autocalibration from tracks of walking people
- It has been shown that under a small number of assumptions, observations of people can be used to obtain metric calibration information of a camera, which is particularly useful for surveillance applications. However, previous work had to exclude the common criticial configuration of the camera’s pr
