Object tracking with occlusion handling is a challenging problem in automated video surveillance. In particular, occlusion handling and tracking have been often considered as separate modules. This paper proposes a tracking method in the context of ...

The English language offers a complex and ambiguous grammar that is readily understood by its natural users, but at times can be difficult to grasp by beginners/learners, and no less, by machines. This paper discusses research and implementations of ...

Due to high dimensionality of face images and finite number of training samples, the linear subspace technique for face recognition pose challenges for better performance. In this paper, we compare the performance of linear subspace methods which ...

Fingerprint friction ridge details are generally described in a hierarchical order at three levels, namely, Level 1 (pattern), Level 2 (minutiae points) and Level 3 (pores and ridge shape). Although high resolution sensors (~ 1000dpi) have become ...

Association rule mining is a particularly well studied field in data mining given its importance as a building block in many data analytics tasks. Many studies have focused on efficiency because the data to be mined is typically very large. However, ...

Autonomic Service-Component Ensembles (ASCENS) is a class of multi-agent systems formed as mobile, intelligent and open-ended swarms of special autonomic service components capable of local and distributed reasoning. Such components encapsulate rules, ...
