Recent work on unsupervised feature learning has shown that learning on polynomial expansions of input patches, such as on pair-wise products of pixel intensities, can improve the...
We investigate a biologically motivated approach to fast visual classification, directly inspired by the recent work [13]. Specifically, trading-off biological accuracy for comput...
Many object categories are better characterized by the shape of their contour than by local appearance properties like texture or color. Multi-local features are designed in order...

High-level vision systems use object, scene or domain specific knowledge to interpret images. Unfortunately, this knowledge has to be acquired for every domain. This makes it diffi...
