A blind traveler walking through an unfamiliar environment, and a mobile robot navigating through a cluttered environment have an important feature in common: both have the kinema...
A Bayesian marked point process (MPP) model is developed
to detect and count people in crowded scenes. The
model couples a spatial stochastic process governing number
and placem...
Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...
Many mixed-reality systems require real-time composition of virtual objects with real video. Such composition requires some description of the virtual and real scene geometries an...
We present a method to learn visual attributes (eg.“red”,
“metal”, “spotted”) and object classes (eg. “car”,
“dress”, “umbrella”) together. We assume imag...
