In this paper, an efficient algorithm for human face detection and facial feature extraction is
devised. Firstly, the location of the face regions is detected using the genetic algorithm and …

In this paper, we propose the Interest Meter (IM), a system making the computer conscious of
user's reactions to measure user's interest and thus use it to conduct video summarization …

In this paper, we propose a novel system for automatically summarizing home videos based
on a user experience model. The user experience model takes account of user's …

An integral part of the MPEG-4 standard is the definition of face animation parameters
(FAPs). This paper presents a method for the determination of FAPs by using three …

Human face recognition has been widely used in applications such as video surveillance
camera, criminal identification, and content-based image retrieval. With the advances in …

This paper proposes a camera-based real-time system for building a three dimensional (3D)
human head model. The proposed system is first trained in a semi-automatic way to locate …

This paper describes a joint biometric-cryptographic authentication system for mobile e-
government transactions. The system can be used to verify, prove, and enforce'mobile …

This paper addresses the problem of adapting a generic 3D face model to a human face of
which the frontal and profile views are given. Assuming that a set of feature points have …

This paper studies a new method for three-dimensional (3D) facial model adaptation and its
integration into a text-to-speech (TTS) system. The 3D facial adaptation requires a set of two …

In this paper we quantify the effects of using different types and resolutions of gallery images
on two different 2D facial recognition systems. Similar tests have been conducted in this …
