Object detection in clutter or occlusion is a hard problem in computer vision. We propose an object detection method based on contour grouping. Two stages are included: a novel di...
We describe a method for computing the likelihood that a completion joining two contour fragments passes through any given position and orientation in the image plane, that is, a m...
Saliency is an important perceptual cue that occurs at different scales of resolution. Important attributes of saliency are symmetry, continuity, and closure. Detection of these a...

Caching is a proven means to improve scalability and availability of software systems as well as to reduce latency of user requests. In contrast to Web caching where single Web ob...
We address the fundamental problem of matching in two static images. The remaining challenges are related to occlusion and lack of texture. Our approach addresses these difficultie...
