The availability of quantitative online benchmarks for
low-level vision tasks such as stereo and optical flow has led
to significant progress in the respective fields. This paper...

We introduce a convex relaxation framework to optimally
minimize continuous surface ratios. The key idea is to minimize
the continuous surface ratio by solving a sequence
of con...

An important research area in computer vision is developing
algorithms that can reconstruct the 3D surface of an object
represented by a single 2D line drawing. Previous work
on...

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 ...

In this paper, a novel feature named Adaptive Contour
Feature (ACF) is proposed for human detection and segmentation.
This feature consists of a chain of a number of
granules in...

Recently SVMs using spatial pyramid matching (SPM)
kernel have been highly successful in image classification.
Despite its popularity, these nonlinear SVMs have a complexity
O(n...

The Conditional Random Fields (CRF) model, using
patch-based classification bound with context information,
has recently been widely adopted for image segmentation/
labeling. In...
We propose to shift the goal of recognition from naming
to describing. Doing so allows us not only to name familiar
objects, but also: to report unusual aspects of a familiar
ob...

This paper proposes a method for capturing the performance
of a human or an animal from a multi-view video
sequence. Given an articulated template model and silhouettes
from a m...

Higher order spatial features, such as doublets or
triplets have been used to incorporate spatial information
into the bag-of-local-features model. Due to computational
limits, ...
