In this paper, we introduce the Skellam distribution as a sensor noise model for CCD or CMOS cameras. This is derived from the Poisson distribution of photons that determine the s...
We present a higher-level visual representation, visual synset, for object categorization. The visual synset improves the traditional bag of words representation with better discr...

Most of the work on 3-D object recognition from range data has used an alignment-verification approach in which a specific 3-D object is matched to an exact instance of the same o...

The increased use of context for high level reasoning has been popular in recent works to increase recognition accuracy. In this paper, we consider an orthogonal application of con...
Abstract. This contribution proposes a compositional approach to visual object categorization of scenes. Compositions are learned from the Caltech 101 database1 intermediate abstra...
