"This is a book about the problem of vision. How is it that a torrent of data from a television camera, or from biological visual receptors, can be reduced to perceptions - th...
We present a technique called Random Image Structure Evolution (RISE) for use in experimental investigations of high-level visual perception. Potential applications of RISE includ...
This chapter presents an approach for texture and object recognition that uses scale- or affine-invariant local image features in combination with a discriminative classifier. Text...
We investigate the role of sparsity and localized features in a biologically-inspired model of visual object classification. As in the model of Serre, Wolf, and Poggio, we first a...
In this paper, we present an algorithm to combine edge information from stereo-derived depth maps with edges from the original intensity/color image to improve the contour detecti...
