Image parsing remains difficult due to the need to combine
local and contextual information when labeling a

We consider the problem of localizing the articulated and deformable shape of a walking person in a single view. We represent the non-rigid 2D body contour by a Bayesian graphical...
This paper presents a new statistical model for detecting and tracking deformable objects such as pedestrians, where large shape variations induced by local shape deformation can ...
In this paper we show that efficient object recognition can be obtained by combining informative features with linear classification. The results demonstrate the superiority of in...
