The maximum flow algorithm for minimizing energy functions of binary variables has become a standard tool in computer vision. In many cases, unary costs of the energy depend linea...
Recognizing humans, estimating their pose and segmenting their body parts are key to high-level image understanding. Because humans are highly articulated, the range of deformation...
Some previous works show that a web page can be partitioned to multiple segments or blocks, and usually the importance of those blocks in a page is not equivalent. Also, it is pro...
