In this work a new robust color and contour based object detection method in images with varying shadows is presented. The method relies on a physics-based contour detector that em...

Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
This paper presents an object categorization method. Our approach involves the following aspects of cognitive vision : machine learning and knowledge representation. A major eleme...
A key problem in model-based object recognition is selection, namely, the problem of determining which regions in the image are likely to come from a single object. In this paper w...
Background estimation and removal based on the joint use of range and color data produces superior results than can be achieved with either data source alone. This is increasingly...
