A method is proposed to detect multi-part man-made or natural objects in complex images. It consists in first extracting simple curves and straight lines from the edge map. Then, ...
This paper presents a probability method for detecting people in a static image. We simplify people as a torso and four limbs. The torso is fitted by a quadrangle, and each limb i...
We investigate to what extent `bag of visual words' models can be used to distinguish categories which have significant visual similarity. To this end we develop and optimize...
Most object detection techniques discussed in the literature are based solely on texture-based features that capture the global or local appearance of an object. While results indi...
In this article, a system to detect the rooms in architectural floor plan images is described. We first present a primitive extraction algorithm for line detection. It is based ...
