In patch-based object recognition, there are two important issues on the codebook generation: (1) resolution: a coarse codebook lacks sufficient discriminative power, and an over-...
In this work we aim to capitalize on the availability of Internet image search engines to automatically create image training sets from user provided queries. This problem is part...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to model shape variations. It encodes sparsity, exploits geometric redundancy, and accounts for the different degrees of local variation...
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...

The automatic reconstruction of 3D models from image sequences is still a very active field of research. All existing methods are designed for a given camera model, and a new (and...
