We present an approach to hierarchically encode the topology of functions over triangulated surfaces. We describe the topology of a function by its Morse-Smale complex, a well kno...
We propose a new topological data structure for representing a set of polygonal curves embedded in a meshed surface. In this embedding, the vertices of the curve do not necessaril...
In the real visual world, the number of categories a classifier needs to discriminate is on the order of hundreds or thousands. For example, the SUN dataset [24] contains 899 sce...
Disability of visual text reading has a huge impact on the quality of life for visually disabled people. One of the most anticipated devices is a wearable camera capable of findi...
We propose to incorporate hundreds of pre-trained concept detectors to provide contextual information for improving the performance of multimodal video search. The approach takes ...
