In this paper we present a two-level generative model for representing the images and surface depth maps of drapery and clothes. The upper level consists of a number of folds whic...
Abstract-- This paper introduces Evolutionary Pursuit (EP) as a novel and adaptive representation method for image encoding and classification. In analogy to projection pursuit met...
A new method for analyzing the intrinsic dimensionality (ID) of low dimensional manifolds in high dimensional feature spaces is presented. The basic idea is to rst extract a low-d...
