The task of selecting information and rendering it appropriately appears in multiple contexts in summarization. In this paper we present a model that simultaneously optimizes sele...
We present a new approach to iteratively estimate both
high-quality depth map and alpha matte from a single image
or a video sequence. Scene depth, which is invariant

We address the problem of computing the 3-dimensional shape of an arbitrary scene from a set of images taken at known viewpoints. Multi-camera scene reconstruction is a natural gen...
Many realistic visual recognition tasks are “open” in the sense that the number and nature of the categories to be learned are not initially known, and there is no closed set ...
In this paper, we propose a framework for isolating text regions from natural scene images. The main algorithm has two functions: it generates text region candidates, and it veri...
