In this paper we present two contributions to improve accuracy and speed of an image search system based on bag-of-features: a contextual dissimilarity measure (CDM) and an effici...
We present an autocalibration algorithm for upgrading a projective reconstruction to a metric reconstruction by estimating the absolute dual quadric. The algorithm enforces the ra...
Kernel machines have recently been considered as a promising solution for implicit surface modelling. A key challenge of machine learning solutions is how to fit implicit shape mo...
We present an algorithm for performing Lambertian photometric stereo in the presence of shadows. The algorithm has three novel features. First, a fast graph cuts based method is u...
Discriminative approaches to human pose inference involve mapping visual observations to articulated body configurations. Current probabilistic approaches to learn this mapping ha...
