This paper proposes a new approach to describe the salient contours in cluttered scenes. No need to do the preprocessing, such as edge detection, we directly use a set of random s...
Object recognition is challenging due to high intra-class
variability caused, e.g., by articulation, viewpoint changes,
and partial occlusion. Successful methods need to strike a...
In human perception, convex surfaces have a strong tendency to be perceived as the "figure". Convexity has a stronger influence on figural organization than other global...
Markov Networks (also known as Markov Random Fields) have been proposed as a new approach to probabilistic modelling in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs). An EDA employ...

Gaussian Markov random fields (GMRFs) are useful in a broad range of applications. In this paper we tackle the problem of learning a sparse GMRF in a high-dimensional space. Our a...
