We propose a new method for rapid 3D object indexing that combines feature-based methods with coarse alignment-based matching techniques. Our approach achieves a sublinear complexi...

In this paper, we address the issue of extracting contour of the object with a specific shape. A hierarchical graphical model is proposed to represent shape variations. A complex ...
—We present a discriminative part-based approach for human action recognition from video sequences using motion features. Our model is based on the recently proposed hidden condi...
Probabilistic feature relevance learning (PFRL) is an effective technique for adaptively computing local feature relevance for content-based image retrieval. It however becomes le...
Content-based image retrieval requires a natural image (e.g, a photo) as query, but the absence of such a query image is usually the reason for a search. An easy way to express the...
