In this work, we approach the classic Mumford-Shah problem from a curve evolution perspective. In particular, we let a given family of curves define the boundaries between regions...
Classification with only one labeled example per class is a challenging problem in machine learning and pattern recognition. While there have been some attempts to address this pr...
1 We propose a principled method for designing high level features for photo quality assessment. Our resulting system can classify between high quality professional photos and low...
This paper presents a new approach to discriminative modeling for classi cation and labeling. Our method, called Boosting on Multilevel Aggregates (BMA), adds a new class of hiera...
A novel method is introduced to recognize and estimate the scale of time-varying human gestures. It exploits the changes in contours along spatio-temporal directions. Each contour...
