Non-Local Sparse Models for Image Restoration
We propose in this paper to unify two different ap- proaches to image restoration: On the one hand, learning a basis set (dictionary) adapted to sparse signal descriptions has p...

Is a detector only good for detection?
A common design of an object recognition system has two steps, a detection step followed by a foreground withinclass classification step. For example, consider face detection by...

Deformable Model Fitting with a Mixture of Local Experts
Local experts have been used to great effect for fitting deformable models to images. Typically, the best location in an image for the deformable model’s landmarks are found t...

Scene Shape Priors for Superpixel Segmentation
Unsupervised over-segmentation of an image into superpixels is a common preprocessing step for image parsing algorithms. Superpixels are used as both regions of support for feat...

Detecting Interpretable and Accurate Scale-Invariant keypoints
This paper presents a novel method for detecting scale invariant keypoints. It fills a gap in the set of available methods, as it proposes a scale-selection mechanism for juncti...

Active Appearance Models with Rotation Invariant Kernels
2D Active Appearance Models (AAM) and 3D Morphable Models (3DMM) are widely used techniques. AAM provide a fast fitting process, but may represent unwanted 3D transformations un...
