In this paper, we present a biased sampling strategy for object class modeling, which can effectively circumvent the scene matching problem commonly encountered in statistical image-based object categorization. The method optimally combines the bottom-up, biologically inspired saliency information with loose, top-down class prior information to form a probabilistic distribution for feature sampling...
In this paper, we propose a new method to model the manifold of handwritten Chinese characters using the local discriminant projection. We utilize a cascade framework that combines global similarity with local discriminative cues to recognize Chinese characters. We find the similarity of different characters using a nearest-neighbor (NN) classifier, and followed by the Local Discriminant Projection...
Finding a new position for each landmark is a crucial step in active shape model (ASM). Mahalanobis distance minimization is used for this finding, provided there are enough training data such that the grey-level profiles for each landmark follow a multivariate Gaussian distribution. However, this condition could not be satisfied in most cases. In this paper, a new method support vector machine (SVM)...
This paper proposes an effective gait recognition approach based on the Gait Energy Image (GEI) representation. Synthetic GEI samples are first generated to address the problem of lacking training data. Then the Gabor phase spectrum of GEI which was ignored in the previous work is utilized as the input feature, and it is subsequently embedded into a low dimensional manifold by locality preserving...
