Estimating the number of people in a crowded environment is a central task in civilian surveillance. Most vision-based counting techniques depend on detecting individuals in order...
Object recognition can be formulated as matching image features to model features. When recognition is exemplar-based, feature correspondence is one-to-one. However, segmentation e...
