	abstract = {Image registration is an important problem in image processing and computer vision. Much recent work in image registration is on matching non-rigid deformations. Thin plate splines are an effective image registration method when the deformation between two images can be modeled as the bending of a thin metal plate on point constraints such that the topology is preserved (non-rigid deformation). However, because evaluating the computed TPS model at all the image pixels is computationally expensive, we need to speed it up. We introduce the use of multi-level fast muitipole method (MLFMM) for this purpose. Our contribution lies in the presentation of a clear and concise MLFMM framework for TPS, which will be useful for future application developments. The achieved speedup using MLFMM is an improvement from O(N<sup>2</sup>) to O(N log N). We show that the fast evaluation outperforms the brute force method while maintaining acceptable error bound.},

	abstract = {We present a stochastic tracking algorithm for surveillance video where targets are dim and at low resolution. The algorithm builds motion models for both background and foreground by integrating motion and intensity information. Some other merits of the algorithm include adaptive selection of feature points for scene description and defining proper cost functions for displacement estimation. The experimental results show tracking robustness and precision in a challenging video sequences.},
