This paper focuses on multimodal gender recognition. To achieve a robust and discriminative performance for gender recognition, visual observations from both face and corresponding fingerprints are fused to serve for the task. The bag-of-words model is employed to structure the image representation. We propose a novel supervised method to construct the visual words, by which the redundant feature...
We propose to estimate human gender from corresponding fingerprint and face information with the Bayesian hierarchical model. Different from previous works on fingerprint based gender estimation with specially designed features, our method extends to use general local image features. Furthermore, a novel word representation called latent word is designed to work with the Bayesian hierarchical model...
We consider the problem of estimating 3-D human body pose from visual signals within a discriminative framework. It is challenging because there is a wide gap between complex 3-D human motion and planar visual observation, which makes this a severely ill-conditioned problem. In this paper, we focus on three critical factors to tackle human body pose estimation, namely, feature extraction, learning...
In this paper, we present an efficient discriminative method for human pose estimation. This method learns a direct mapping from visual observations to human body configurations. The framework requires that the visual features should be powerful enough to discriminate the subtle differences between similar human poses. We propose to describe the image features using salient interest points that are...
