The use of an alphabet of line segments to compose a curve is a possible approach for curve data compression. An existing state-of-the-art method considers a quadtree decompositio...
We present a method for the simultaneous detection and segmentation of objects from static images. We employ lowlevel contour features that enable us to learn the coarse object sh...
We present an integrated pixel segmentation and region tracking algorithm, designed for indoor environments. Visual monitoring systems often use frame differencing techniques to i...
This paper presents a technique to characterize human actions in visual surveillance scenarios in order to describe, in a qualitative way, basic human movements in general imaging ...

Iris segmentation is one of the crucial steps in building an iris recognition system since it affects the accuracy of the iris matching significantly. This segmentation should acc...
