Given a pair of images represented using bag-of-visual words and a label corresponding to whether the images are “related”(must-link constraint) or “unrelated” (must not li...
In this paper, we discuss the influence of feature vectors contributions at each learning time t on a sequential-type competitive learning algorithm. We then give a learning rate ...
We propose a visual event recognition framework for consumer domain videos by leveraging a large amount of loosely labeled web videos (e.g., from YouTube). First, we propose a new...
Many modern visual recognition algorithms incorporate a step of spatial `pooling', where the outputs of several nearby feature detectors are combined into a local or global `...
The paper is devoted to the problem of estimating the number of people visible in a camera. It uses as features a portion of foreground pixels in each cell of a rectangular grid. ...
