This survey reports the approaches for object detection and successful target tracking based on image acquisition for real time applications. Moving target detection and its tracking is an important research topic in computer vision and robotics. Complexity of algorithms for this purpose ranges from simple, single and stationary targets tracking to complex, multiple and moving targets handling....

In this paper we present a model for email authorship identification (EAI) by employing a Cluster-based Classification (CCM) technique. Traditionally, stylometric features have been successfully employed in various authorship analysis tasks; we extend the traditional feature-set to include some more interesting and effective features for email authorship identification (e.g. the last punctuatio...
