Object detection and pixel-wise scene labeling have both been active research areas in recent years and impressive results have been reported for both tasks separately. The integra...
The Web contains an abundance of useful semistructured information about real world objects, and our empirical study shows that strong sequence characteristics exist for Web infor...

A growing mount of available text data are being stored in relational databases, giving rise to an increasing need for the RDBMSs to support effective text retrieval. In this pape...
Conditional Random Field models have proved effective for several low-level computer vision problems. Inference in these models involves solving a combinatorial optimization probl...
