In the past, quantized local descriptors have been shown to be a good base for the representation of images, that can be applied to a wide range of tasks. However, current approac...
This paper presents a new statistical model for detecting and tracking deformable objects such as pedestrians, where large shape variations induced by local shape deformation can ...
Image categorization involves the well known difficulties with different visual appearances of a single object, but introduces also the problem of within-category variation. This ...
Image matching is a fundamental task of many problems in computer vision. This paper presents a novel local feature descriptor based on the gradient distance and orientation histo...
