Motion models for robust 3D human body tracking

Raquel Urtasun

In this work, we propose new ways to learn pose and motion priors models and show that they can be used to increase the performance of 3D body tracking algorithms, resulting in very realistic motions under very challenging conditions. We first explored an ...

Kernel Methods for Melanoma Recognition

Barbara Caputo, Tatiana Tommasi

Malignant melanoma is the most deadly for of skin lesion. Early diagnosis is of critical importance to patient survival. Visual recognition algorithms could potentially be of great help for physicians in a computer assisted diagnosis system. Previous work ...

Towards a Robust BCI: Error Potentials and Online Learning

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Anna Buttfield, Pierre Ferrez

Recent advances in the field of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) have shown that BCIs have the potential to provide a powerful new channel of communication, completely independent of muscular and nervous systems. However, while there have been successful l ...

Anisotropic Gaussian Filters for Face Class Modeling

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Vlad Popovici, Julien Meynet

In this paper we propose a new approach to automatic human face detection which employs anisotropic Gaussian filters as local image descriptors. We then show how the paradigm of classifier combination can be used for building a face detector that outperfor ...

Hierarchical Indexing using R-trees for Replica Detection

Touradj Ebrahimi

Replica detection is a prerequisite for the discovery of copyright infringement and detection of illicit content. For this purpose, content-based systems can be an efficient alternative to watermarking. Rather than imperceptibly embedding a signal, content ...

Unsupervised Speech/Non-speech Detection for Automatic Speech Recognition in Meeting Rooms

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Petr Motlicek

The goal of this work is to provide robust and accurate speech detection for automatic speech recognition (ASR) in meeting room settings. The solution is based on computing long-term modulation spectrum, and examining specific frequency range for dominant ...

Human body pose detection using Bayesian spatio-temporal templates

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Miodrag Dimitrijevic

We present a template-based approach to detecting human silhouettes in a specific walking pose. Our templates consist of short sequences of 2D silhouettes obtained from motion capture data. This lets us incorporate motion information into them and helps di ...

Overcoming Incomplete User Models in Recommendation Systems Via an Ontology

Boi Faltings, Vincent Jean Fabrice Schickel

To make accurate recommendations, recommendation systems currently require more data about a customer than is usually available. We conjecture that the weaknesses are due to a lack of inductive bias in the learning methods used to build the prediction mode ...

Proceedings of the 21st European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP), Berlin

Data in object-oriented programming is organized in a hierarchy of classes. The problem of object-oriented pattern matching is how to explore this hierarchy from the outside. This usually involves classifying objects by their run-time type, accessing the ...
