Recently, the bag-of-words approach has been successfully applied to automatic image annotation, object recognition, etc. The method needs to first quantize an image using the vis...
The existing methods for offline training of cascade classifiers take a greedy search to optimize individual classifiers in the cascade, leading inefficient overall performance. W...
We present a method for the simultaneous detection and segmentation of people from static images. The proposed technique requires no manual segmentation during training, and explo...
Dimensionality reduction via feature projection has been widely used in pattern recognition and machine learning. It is often beneficial to derive the projections not only based o...
