Image patches are fundamental elements for object modeling and recognition. However, there has not been a panoramic study of the structures of the whole ensemble of natural image ...
We extend Support Vector Machines to input spaces that are sets by ensuring that the classifier is invariant to permutations of subelements within each input. Such permutations in...
In this paper we present a method for learning classspecific
features for recognition. Recently a greedy layerwise
procedure was proposed to initialize weights of deep
belief ne...

In Computer Vision, two-dimensional shape classifcation is a complex and well studied topic, often basic for three-dimensional object recognition. Object contours are a widely cho...
Abstract. The scale invariant property of an ensemble of natural images is examined which motivates a new early visual representation termed the higher order pyramid. The represent...
