In recent years, research efforts seeking to provide more natural, human-centered means of
interacting with computers have gained growing interest. A particularly important direction is …

In recent years, the field of Universal Access has made significant progress in consolidating
theoretical approaches, scientific methods and technologies, as well as in exploring new …

Recent research in computer vision has increasingly focused on building systems for
observing humans and understanding their appearance, movements, and activities …

A segmentation scheme to detect surface defects is proposed. An unsupervised neural
network, the self-organizing map, is used to estimate the distribution of fault-free samples …

We present in this article a human detection and tracking algorithm using infrared vision in
order to have reliable information on a room occupation. We intend to use this information to …

This paper presents a new approach for real time detection and tracking of human hands
and faces in image sequences. The proposed method builds upon our previous research on …

In this paper, we present a new method of detecting visual objects in digital images and
video. The novelty of the proposed method is that it differentiates objects from non-objects …

Facial expression is a very useful channel for intelligent human computer communication. In
this paper we propose a hybrid method to recognize facial expression. Our main …

In this paper, we present an approach for providing dynamic object association and
identification in heterogeneous sensor networks where identification sensors have coverage …

This work presents a novel approach to human detection based action-recognition in real-
time. To realize this goal our method first detects humans in different poses using a …
