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...

We propose a new deformable shape model Active Shape Structural Model (ASSM) for recognition and reconstruction. The main features of ASSM are: (1) It describes variations of shape...
Embedding algorithms search for low dimensional structure in complex data, but most algorithms only handle objects of a single type for which pairwise distances are specified. Thi...

This paper investigates segmentation-based image descriptors for object category recognition. In contrast to commonly used interest points the proposed descriptors are extracted f...
Towards the goal of realizing a generic automatichuman activity recognition system, a new formalism is proposed. Activities are described by a chained hierarchical representation ...
