In patch-based object recognition, using a compact visual codebook can boost computational efficiency and reduce memory cost. Nevertheless, compared with a large-sized codebook, it...
We present a method for spotting words in the wild, i.e., in real images taken in unconstrained environments. Text found in the wild has a surprising range of difficulty. At one en...
Abstract. In numerous content-based video applications, it is important to extract from a video sequence a representation for humans in motion. This task is di cult, because humans...
We present an efficient method for learning part-based object class models from unsegmented images represented as sets of salient features. A model includes parts' appearance...
Cosegmentation is typically defined as the task of jointly segmenting “something similar” in a given set of images. Existing methods are too generic and so far have not demon...
