Most tracking algorithms are based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution of a probabilistic framework called Hidden Markov Model, where the distribution of the object state a...
One of the major problems in modeling images for vision tasks is that images with very similar structure may locally have completely different appearance, e.g., images taken under...
In this paper, we present a compositional boosting algorithm for detecting and recognizing 17 common image structures in low-middle level vision tasks. These structures, called &q...
The concept of the Bayesian optimal single threshold is a well established and widely used classification technique. In this paper, we prove that when spatial cohesion is assumed ...
Most of the online multimedia collections, such as picture galleries or video archives, are categorized in a fully manual process, which is very expensive and may soon be infeasib...
