In this paper, we propose a novel appearance-based representation, called Structured Ordinal Feature (SOF). SOF is a binary string encoded by combining eight ordinal blocks in a ci...

Self-organizing models develop realistic cortical structures when given approximations of the visual environment as input, and are an effective way to model the development of fac...
Learning visual classifiers for object recognition from weakly labeled data requires determining correspondence between image regions and semantic object classes. Most approaches u...
The chapter describes visual classification by a hierarchy of semantic fragments. In fragment-based classification, objects within a class are represented by common sub-structures ...
—One of the challenging problems in geometric modeling and computer graphics is the construction of realistic human facial geometry. Such geometry are essential for a wide range ...
