A Probabilistic Framework for Partial Intrinsic Symmetries in Geometric Data
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for partial intrinsic symmetry detection in 3D geometry. Unlike previous work, our algorithm is based on a conceptually simple and st...

Bayesian selection of scaling laws for motion modeling in images
Based on scaling laws describing the statistical structure of turbulent motion across scales, we propose a multiscale and non-parametric regularizer for optic-flow estimation. R...

Top-Down Color Attention for Object Recognition
Generally the bag-of-words based image representation follows a bottom-up paradigm. The subsequent stages of the process: feature detection, feature description, vocabulary cons...

Detecting Objects in Large Image Collections and Videos by Efficient Subimage Retrieval
We study the task of detecting the occurrence of objects in large image collections or in videos, a problem that combines aspects of content based image retrieval and object locali...

3D reconstruction from image collections with a single known focal length
In this paper we aim at reconstructing 3D scenes from images with unknown focal lengths downloaded from photosharing websites such as Flickr. First we provide a minimal solution...

A Latent Model of Discriminative Aspect
Recognition using appearance features is confounded by phenomena that cause images of the same object to look different, or images of different objects to look the same. This ma...

Power watersheds: a new image segmentation framework extending graph cuts, random walker and optimal spanning forest
In this work, we extend a common framework for seeded image segmentation that includes the graph cuts, ran- dom walker, and shortest path optimization algorithms. Viewing an ima...

Optimizing Parametric Total Variation Models
One of the key factors for the success of recent energy minimization methods is that they seek to compute global solutions. Even for non-convex energy functionals, optimization ...

Tracking a Hand Manipulating an Object
We present a method for tracking a hand while it is interacting with an object. This setting is arguably the one where hand-tracking has most practical relevance, but poses signi...
