Traditionally, object recognition is performed based solely on the appearance of the object. However, relevant information also exists in the scene surrounding the object. As supp...
This paper explores the use of volumetric features for action recognition. First, we propose a novel method to correlate spatio-temporal shapes to video clips that have been autom...
We introduce an epitomic representation for modeling human activities in video sequences. A video sequence is divided into segments within which the dynamics of objects is assumed...
Detecting objects in complex scenes while recovering the scene layout is a critical functionality in many vision-based applications. Inspired by the work of [18], we advocate the ...
We present a general framework for characterizing the object identity in a single image or a group of images with each image containing a transformed version of the object, with a...
