Abstract. We develop an object detection method combining top-down recognition with bottom-up image segmentation. There are two main steps in this method: a hypothesis generation s...
We combine local texture features (PCA-SIFT), global features (shape context), and spatial features within a single multi-layer AdaBoost model of object class recognition. The fir...

Abstract. Despite the ubiquitous use of range images in various computer vision applications, little has been investigated about the size variation of the local geometric structure...
This paper presents an efficient and homogeneous paradigm for automatic acquisition and recognition of nonparametric shapes. Acquisition time varies from linear to cubic in the nu...
A Bayesian network formulation for relational shape matching is presented. The main advantage of the relational shape matching approach is the obviation of the non-rigid spatial m...
