Fast Human Detection Using a Cascade of Histograms of Oriented Gradients
TL;DR: This work integrates the cascade-of-rejectors approach with the Histograms of Oriented Gradients features to achieve a fast and accurate human detection system that can process 5 to 30 frames per second depending on the density in which the image is scanned, while maintaining an accuracy level similar to existing methods.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Using visual features for anti-spam filtering
TL;DR: A novel anti-spam system which utilizes visual clues, in addition to text information in the email body, to determine whether a message is spam, using one-class support vector machines (SVM) as the underlying base classifier for anti- Spam filtering.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Adaptive learning of an accurate skin-color model
TL;DR: An adaptive skin-detection method, which allows modeling true skin-color distribution with significantly higher accuracy and flexibility than other methods attain, and can be applied to both still images and video applications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
An adaptive skin model and its application to objectionable image filtering
TL;DR: An adaptive skin-detection method, which allows modelling and detection of the true skin-color pixels with significantly higher accuracy and flexibility than previous methods, and a two-level classification scheme based on hierarchical bagging to improve the accuracy.
