The Self-Aware Matching Measure for Stereo
We revisit stereo matching functions, a topic that is considered well understood, from a different angle. Our goal is to discover a transformation that operates on the cost or s...

Shape Guided Contour Grouping with Particle Filters
We propose a novel framework for contour based object detection and recognition, which we formulate as a joint contour fragment grouping and labeling problem. For a given set of...

Human Pose Estimation Using Consistent Max-Covering
We propose a novel consistent max-covering scheme for human pose estimation. Consistent max-covering formulates pose estimation as the covering of body part polygons on an objec...

Adaptive Fragments-Based Tracking of Non-Rigid Objects Using Level Sets
We present an approach to visual tracking based on dividing a target into multiple regions, or fragments. The target is represented by a Gaussian mixture model in a joint feature...

Efficient subset selection based on the Renyi entropy
Many machine learning algorithms require the summation of Gaussian kernel functions, an expensive operation if implemented straightforwardly. Several methods have been proposed t...

Non-Local Sparse Models for Image Restoration
We propose in this paper to unify two different ap- proaches to image restoration: On the one hand, learning a basis set (dictionary) adapted to sparse signal descriptions has p...

Is a detector only good for detection?
A common design of an object recognition system has two steps, a detection step followed by a foreground withinclass classification step. For example, consider face detection by...

Which Faces to Tag: Adding Prior Constraints into Active Learning
We introduce an algorithm that guides the user to tag faces in the best possible order during a face recognition assisted tagging scenario. In particular, we extend the active l...

Scene Shape Priors for Superpixel Segmentation
Unsupervised over-segmentation of an image into superpixels is a common preprocessing step for image parsing algorithms. Superpixels are used as both regions of support for feat...
