Abstract. Recently we have proposed Gaussian mixtures as a local statistical model to synthesize artificial textures. We describe the statistical dependence of pixels of a movable ...
Latent Layout Analysis (LLA) is a novel unsupervised learning technique to discover objects in unseen images using a set of un-annotated training images. LLA defines a generative ...
Several novel and particularly successful object and object category detection and recognition methods based on image features, local descriptions of object appearance, have recent...

We describe a mid-level approach for action recognition. From an input video, we extract salient spatio-temporal structures by forming clusters of trajectories that serve as candi...
We investigate a new, convex relaxation of an expectation-maximization (EM) variant that approximates a standard objective while eliminating local minima. First, a cautionary resu...
