|The use of matching pursuit (MP) to code video using over-complete Gabor basis functions has recently been introduced 8]. In this paper, we propose new functionalities such as SNR scalability and arbitrary shape coding for video coding based on matching pursuit. We improve the performance of the baseline algorithm in 8] by proposing a new search and a new position coding technique. The resulti...

A feature-based approach to tracking rigid and non-rigid facial motion is described. Feature points are characterised using Gabor wavelets and can be individually tracked by phase-based displacement estimation. In order to achieve robust tracking a exible shape model is used to impose global constraints upon the local feature points and to constrain the tracker. While there are many application...

A simple construction of adaptive confidence sets is proposed in isotonic, convex and unimodal regression. In univariate isotonic regression, the set enjoys uniform coverage over all non-decreasing regression functions. Furthermore, diameter automatically adapts to unknown number pieces true parameter, sense that bounded from above by minimax risk class $k$-piecewise constant The a increasing f...
