We investigate the problem of automatically labelling
faces of characters in TV or movie material with their
names, using only weak supervision from automaticallyaligned
subtitl...
We describe a novel device that can be used as a 2.5D
“scanner” for acquiring surface texture and shape. The device
consists of a slab of clear elastomer covered with a
refl...
Due to the capacity of pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras to
simultaneously cover a panoramic area and maintain high
resolution imagery, researches in automated surveillance
systems wi...

Modeling and recognizing landmarks at world-scale is a
useful yet challenging task. There exists no readily available
list of worldwide landmarks. Obtaining reliable visual
mode...

A novel particle filter, the Memory-based Particle Filter
(M-PF), is proposed that can visually track moving objects
that have complex dynamics. We aim to realize robustness

We present a novel framework for recognizing repetitive
sequential events performed by human actors with strong
temporal dependencies and potential parallel overlap. Our
solutio...
We address the problem of label assignment in computer
vision: given a novel 3-D or 2-D scene, we wish to assign a
unique label to every site (voxel, pixel, superpixel, etc.). To...

Many problems in computer vision can be modeled using
conditional Markov random fields (CRF). Since finding
the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution in such models
is NP-hard, mu...

Multiple-instance Learning (MIL) is a new paradigm
of supervised learning that deals with the classification of
bags. Each bag is presented as a collection of instances
from whi...

In many image and video collections, we have access
only to partially labeled data. For example, personal photo
collections often contain several faces per image and a caption
