Piecewise Planar Stereo for Image-based Rendering
We present a novel multi-view stereo method designed for image-based rendering that generates piecewise planar depth maps from an unordered collection of photographs. First a di...

Least-Squares Congealing for Large Numbers of Images
In this paper we pursue the task of aligning an ensemble of images in an unsupervised manner. This task has been commonly referred to as “congealing” in literature. A form o...

Wide-Baseline Image Matching Using Line Signatures
We present a wide-baseline image matching approach based on line segments. Line segments are clustered into local groups according to spatial proximity. Each group is treated as...

Poselets: Body Part Detectors Trained Using 3D Human Pose Annotations
We address the classic problems of detection, segmenta- tion and pose estimation of people in images with a novel definition of a part, a poselet. We postulate two criteria (1) ...

Time Series Prediction by Chaotic Modeling of Nonlinear Dynamical Systems
We use concepts from chaos theory in order to model nonlinear dynamical systems that exhibit deterministic behavior. Observed time series from such a system can be embedded into...

Diagram Techniques for Multiple View Geometry
Multilinear algebra is a powerful theoretical tool for visual geometry, but widespread usage of traditional typographical notation often hides its conceptual elegance and simpli...

Weakly supervised discriminative localization and classification: a joint learning process
Visual categorization problems, such as object classification or action recognition, are increasingly often approached using a detection strategy: a classifier function is first ...

A Global Perspective on MAP Inference for Low-Level Vision
In recent years the Markov Random Field (MRF) has become the de facto probabilistic model for low-level vision applications. However, in a maximum a posteriori (MAP) framework, ...

The Dimensionality of Scene Appearance
Low-rank approximation of image collections (e.g., via PCA) is a popular tool in many areas of computer vision. Yet, surprisingly little is known justifying the observation that...

Saliency Driven Total Variation Segmentation
This paper introduces an unsupervised color segmentation method. The underlying idea is to segment the input image several times, each time focussing on a different salient part...
