Video retargeting for digital face animation is used in virtual reality, social media, gaming, movies, and video conference, aiming to animate avatars' facial expressions based on videos of human faces. The standard method to represent…
This work targets human action recognition in video. While recent methods typically represent actions by statistics of local video features, here we argue for the importance of a representation derived from human pose. To this end we…
To dynamically detect the facial landmarks in the video, we propose a novel hybrid framework termed as detection-tracking-detection (DTD). First, the face bounding box is achieved from the first frame of the video sequence based on a…
In this paper we propose the two-stage approach of organizing information in video surveillance systems. At first, the faces are detected in each frame and a video stream is split into sequences of frames with face region of one person.…
Robust video scene classification models should capture the spatial (pixel-wise) and temporal (frame-wise) characteristics of a video effectively. Transformer models with self-attention which are designed to get contextualized…
Visual attributes in individual video frames, such as the presence of characteristic objects and scenes, offer substantial information for action recognition in videos. With individual 2D video frame as input, visual attributes extraction…
This paper presents a novel approach for video-based person re-identification using multiple Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Unlike previous work, we intend to extract a compact yet discriminative appearance representation from…
A number of computer vision tasks exploit a succinct representation of the visual content in the form of sets of local features. Given an input image, feature extraction algorithms identify a set of keypoints and assign to each of them a…
Personality computing and affective computing, where the recognition of personality traits is essential, have gained increasing interest and attention in many research areas recently. We propose a novel approach to recognize the Big Five…
Few-shot learning aims to recognize novel classes from a few examples. Although significant progress has been made in the image domain, few-shot video classification is relatively unexplored. We argue that previous methods underestimate the…
Main characters in images are the most important humans that catch the viewer's attention upon first look, and they are emphasized by properties such as size, position, color saturation, and sharpness of focus. Identifying the main…
Audience discovery is an important activity at major movie studios. Deep models that use convolutional networks to extract frame-by-frame features of a movie trailer and represent it in a form that is suitable for prediction are now…
Human action recognition in videos is a critical task with significant implications for numerous applications, including surveillance, sports analytics, and healthcare. The challenge lies in creating models that are both precise in their…
With the development of multimedia data types and available bandwidth there is huge demand of video retrieval systems, as users shift from text based retrieval systems to content based retrieval systems. Selection of extracted features play…
Facial expressions are one of the most powerful, natural and immediate means for human being to communicate their emotions and intensions. Recognition of facial expression has many applications including human-computer interaction,…
In video-surveillance, person re-identification is the task of recognising whether an individual has already been observed over a network of cameras. Typically, this is achieved by exploiting the clothing appearance, as classical biometric…
In this paper, we propose a recursive framework to recognize facial expressions from images in real scenes. Unlike traditional approaches that typically focus on developing and refining algorithms for improving recognition performance on an…
Studying caricature recognition is fundamentally important to understanding of face perception. However, little research has been conducted in the computer vision community, largely due to the shortage of suitable datasets. In this paper, a…
Current video retrieval systems, especially those used in competitions, primarily focus on querying individual keyframes or images rather than encoding an entire clip or video segment. However, queries often describe an action or event over…
The area of face recognition is one of the most widely researched areas in the domain of computer vision and biometric. This is because, the non-intrusive nature of face biometric makes it comparatively more suitable for application in area…
