Learning Object Color Models from Multi-view Constraints
Color is known to be highly discriminative for many object recognition tasks, but is difficult to infer from uncontrolled images in which the illuminant is not known. Traditional...

A novel approach to expression recognition from non-frontal face images
Non-frontal view facial expression recognition is important in many scenarios where the frontal view face images may not be available. However, few work on this issue has been don...

Efficient retrieval of similar shapes
Abstract. We propose an indexing technique for the fast retrieval of objects in 2D images based on similarity between their boundary shapes. Our technique is robust in the presence...

Head Pose Estimation Based on Manifold Embedding and Distance Metric Learning
In this paper, we propose an embedding method to seek an optimal low-dimensional manifold describing the intrinsical pose variations and to provide an identity-independent head pos...
