Gender recognition from facial images: Two or three dimensions? (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Optical Society of America. This paper seeks to compare encoded features from both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) face images in order to achieve automatic gender recognition with high accuracy and robustness. The Fisher vecto... Read More about Gender recognition from facial images: Two or three dimensions?.

Eye center localization and gaze gesture recognition for human-computer interaction (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Optical Society of America. This paper introduces an unsupervised modular approach for accurate and real-time eye center localization in images and videos, thus allowing a coarse-to-fine, global-to-regional scheme. The trajectories of eye cent... Read More about Eye center localization and gaze gesture recognition for human-computer interaction.

An Analytical Capacitance Model for Through-Silicon Vias in Floating Silicon Substrate (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 IEEE. Through-silicon via (TSV) is an integral part of 2.5-D IC technology leveraged for multichip heterogeneous integration to achieve shorter interconnects, faster speed, and lower power consumption in the state-of-the-art circuit systems.
