Recognition from Appearance Subspaces across Image Sets of Variable Scale
Linear subspace representations of appearance variation are pervasive in computer vision. In this paper we address the problem of robustly matching them (computing the similarity ...

Automatic annotation of unique locations from video and text
Given a video and associated text, we propose an automatic annotation scheme in which we employ a latent topic model to generate topic distributions from weighted text and then mo...

Iterative Hyperplane Merging: A Framework for Manifold Learning
We present a framework for the reduction of dimensionality of a data set via manifold learning. Using the building blocks of local hyperplanes we show how a global manifold can be...

Automatic Facial Expression Recognition using Bags of Motion Words
We present a fully automatic approach for facial expression recognition based on a representation of facial motion using a vocabulary of local motion descriptors. Previous studies...

A general boosting-based framework for active object recognition
We propose a novel general framework with a boosting algorithm to achieve active object classification by view selection. The proposed framework actively decides the next best vie...

Isotropic Granularity-tunable gradients partition (IGGP) descriptors for human detection
This paper presents a new descriptor for human detection in still images. It is referred to as isotropic granularity-tunable gradients partition (IGGP), which is extended from gra...
