Demand continues to grow worldwide, from both government and commerce, for
technologies capable of automatically selecting and identifying object/human behaviour …

The human visual system is capable of interpreting a remarkable variety of often subtle,
learnt, characteristic behaviours. For instance we can determine the gender of a distant …

Human behavior is complex, but not random. Computer analysis of human behavior in its
multiple scales and settings leads to a steady influx of new applications in diverse domains …

Human eyes are highly efficient devices for scanning through a large quantity of low-level
visual sensory data and delivering selective information to one's brain for high-level …

This thesis presents a novel approach to the problem of behaviour modelling within
computer vision. This technique is not based upon statistical measures of typicality, but upon …

This thesis presents a computational framework for the automatic recognition and prediction
of different kinds of human behaviors from video cameras and other sensors, via …

This special issue of the International Journal of Computer Vision contains four articles from
the University of Rochester. This introduction provides an overview of the articles and other …

We are entering an era of more intelligent cognitive vision systems. Such systems can
analyse activity in dynamic scenes to compute conceptual descriptions from motion …
