Future Research Interests:
MUVIDA project employs multimodal video analysis to develop technology to correlate and fuse audio and visual information. In particular, the spoken dialogue is analyzed and correlated with associated text extracted from the video; the identity and number of speakers in the scenes is established by using speaker recognition and face tracking algorithms.

HARR (Human Activity Representation and Recognition) project has developed robust algorithms for human detection, tracking and motion direction estimation and, is currently developing "motion units" and grammar based activity representation and recognition algorithms.

AISS (Autonomous Intelligent Surveillance System) Research Program aims to develop an adaptive and reconfigurable security surveillance system capable of exploiting environmental information and knowledge base. The system provides continuous detection, tracking and recognition of all human activities within the scene to generate person-specific surveillance report. The program consists of several key enabling projects: multi-modal biometrics, human activity representation and recognition, semantic scene description and representation.

MUMOBIO (Multi-modal Biometric) Program is developing a continuous human recognition system using gait, face, voice and fingerprint modalities. The system is integrated with the HARR project to enable person-specific surveillance. In addition, the project is addressing the security issues of traditional pattern recognition based biometric systems by developing schemes to bind effectively and efficiently multimodal biometrics with cryptographic keys to form crypto-biometrics systems.

The Multimedia "Search n Retrieve" Research Program aims to develop methods and tools that can be used in a rapid application development (RAD) environment for multimedia browse, search, and retrieve systems. The systems will employ a multi-modal approach involving, voice, image and video features, text and human cognition.

RIWD (Robust Image Watermarking Decoding) Project aims to develop a robust decoding method for commonly adopted image watermarking schemes such as Spread Spectrum (SS) and Quantization Index Modulation (QIM). The method models and estimates the possible attacks that the watermarked images have suffered and incorporates prior knowledge in a maximum posterior probability (MAP) decoding framework.

In particular, the spoken dialogue is analyzed and correlated with associated text extracted from the video; the identity and number of speakers in the scenes is established by using speaker recognition and face tracking algorithms.

HARR (Human Activity Representation and Recognition) project has developed robust algorithms for human detection, tracking and motion direction estimation and, is currently developing "motion units" and grammar based activity representation and recognition algorithms.

AISS (Autonomous Intelligent Surveillance System) Research Program aims to develop an adaptive and reconfigurable security surveillance system capable of exploiting environmental information and knowledge base. The system provides continuous detection, tracking and recognition of all human activities within the scene to generate person-specific surveillance report. The program consists of several key enabling projects: multi-modal biometrics, human activity representation and recognition, semantic scene description and representation.

MUMOBIO (Multi-modal Biometric) Program is developing a continuous human recognition system using gait, face, voice and fingerprint modalities. The system is integrated with the HARR project to enable person-specific surveillance. In addition, the project is addressing the security issues of traditional pattern recognition based biometric systems by developing schemes to bind effectively and efficiently multimodal biometrics with cryptographic keys to form crypto-biometrics systems.

The Multimedia "Search n Retrieve" Research Program aims to develop methods and tools that can be used in a rapid application development (RAD) environment for multimedia browse, search, and retrieve systems. The systems will employ a multi-modal approach involving, voice, image and video features, text and human cognition.

RIWD (Robust Image Watermarking Decoding) Project aims to develop a robust decoding method for commonly adopted image watermarking schemes such as Spread Spectrum (SS) and Quantization Index Modulation (QIM).
