In this paper, a fast and effective multi-view face tracking algorithm with head pose estimation is introduced. For modeling the face pose, we employ a tree of boosted classifiers built using either Haar-like filters or Gauss filters. A first classifier ex ...
In this report, a method for monitoring activity at a ticket machine is presented. While this work has been done in the specific context of Turin metro, the proposed model could be applied to other locations and tasks in video-surveillance. Monitoring the ...
Categorization is one of the fundamental building blocks of cognitive systems. Object categorization has traditionally been addressed in the vision domain, even though cognitive agents are intrinsically multimodal. Indeed, biological systems combine severa ...
We investigate the use of the log-likelihood of the features obtained from a generative Gaussian mixture model, and the posterior probability of phonemes from a discriminative multilayered perceptron in multi-stream combination for recognition of phonemes. ...
This paper introduces a discriminative model for the retrieval of images from text queries. Our approach formalizes the retrieval task as a ranking problem, and introduces a learning procedure optimizing a criterion related to the ranking performance. The ...
This paper presents a method for monitoring activities at a ticket vending machine in a video-surveillance context. Rather than relying on the output of a tracking module, which is prone to errors, the events are direclty recognized from image measurements ...
We investigate the use of the log-likelihood of the features obtained from a generative Gaussian mixture model, and the posterior probability of phonemes from a discriminative multilayered perceptron in multi-stream combination for recognition of phonemes. ...
Biometric authentication can be cast as a signal processing and statistical pattern recognition problem. As such, it relies on models of signal representations that can be used to discriminate between classes. One of the assumptions typically made by the p ...

We present two models for content-based automatic image annotation and retrieval in web image repositories, based on the co-occurrence of tags and visual features in the images. In particular, we show how additional measures can be taken to address the noi ...
