Detecting image pairs with a common field of view is
an important prerequisite for many computer vision tasks.
Typically, common local features are used as a criterion
for ident...
The problem of recognizing actions in realistic videos
is challenging yet absorbing owing to its great potentials
in many practical applications. Most previous research is
limit...

Much of recent action recognition research is based on
space-time interest points extracted from video using a Bag
of Words (BOW) representation. It mainly relies on the discrimi...

Convex and continuous energy formulations for low level
vision problems enable efficient search procedures for the
corresponding globally optimal solutions. In this work we
exte...

As a well known fixed-point iteration algorithm for kernel
density mode-seeking, Mean-Shift has attracted wide attention
in pattern recognition field. To date, Mean-Shift algorit...
The visual surveillance task is to monitor the activity of objects in a scene. In far-field settings (i.e., wide outdoor areas), the majority of visible activities are objects movi...
We present a simple framework to model contextual
relationships between visual concepts. The new framework
combines ideas from previous object-centric methods
(which model conte...

The mean shift algorithm, which is a nonparametric density
estimator for detecting the modes of a distribution on a
Euclidean space, was recently extended to operate on analytic
...
Image classification and annotation are important problems
in computer vision, but rarely considered together. Intuitively,
annotations provide evidence for the class label,
and...
We present a closed-form solution to the problem of recovering
the 3D shape of a non-rigid potentially stretchable
surface from 3D-to-2D correspondences. In other words,
we can ...
