In this paper we explore object recognition in clutter. We test our object recognition techniques on Gimpy and EZGimpy, examples of visual CAPTCHAs. A CAPTCHA ("Completely Au...
This paper introduces a novel measure for object convexity using the recently introduced Multi-Scale Autoconvolution transform. The proposed measure is computationally efficient a...
In this paper we introduce visual phrases, complex visual composites like “a person riding a horse”. Visual phrases often display significantly reduced visual complexity comp...
