Globally Optimal Affine and Metric Upgrades in Stratified Autocalibration
We present a practical, stratified autocalibration algorithm with theoretical guarantees of global optimality. Given a projective reconstruction, the first stage of the algorithm ...

Vector Quantizing Feature Space with a Regular Lattice
Most recent class-level object recognition systems work with visual words, i.e., vector quantized local descriptors. In this paper we examine the feasibility of a dataindependent ...

Interactive Search for Image Categories by Mental Matching
Traditional image retrieval methods require a "query image" to initiate a search for members of an image category. However, when the image database is unstructured, and ...
