Understanding Camera Trade-Offs through a Bayesian Analysis of Light Field Projections
Computer vision has traditionally focused on extracting structure, such as depth, from images acquired using thin-lens or pinhole optics. The development of computational imaging i...

A Fast Algorithm for Creating a Compact and Discriminative Visual Codebook
In patch-based object recognition, using a compact visual codebook can boost computational efficiency and reduce memory cost. Nevertheless, compared with a large-sized codebook, it...

Priors for Large Photo Collections and What They Reveal about Cameras
A large photo collection downloaded from the internet spans a wide range of scenes, cameras, and photographers. In this paper we introduce several novel priors for statistics of su...

Light-Efficient Photography
We consider the problem of imaging a scene with a given depth of field at a given exposure level in the shortest amount of time possible. We show that by (1) collecting a sequence ...

Robust Visual Tracking Based on an Effective Appearance Model
Most existing appearance models for visual tracking usually construct a pixel-based representation of object appearance so that they are incapable of fully capturing both global an...

Image Segmentation by Branch-and-Mincut
Efficient global optimization techniques such as graph cut exist for energies corresponding to binary image segmentation from lowlevel cues. However, introducing a high-level prior...

Dynamic Integration of Generalized Cues for Person Tracking
Abstract. We present an approach for the dynamic combination of multiple cues in a particle filter-based tracking framework. The proposed algorithm is based on a combination of dem...

Searching the World's Herbaria: A System for Visual Identification of Plant Species
We describe a working computer vision system that aids in the identification of plant species. A user photographs an isolated leaf on a blank background, and the system extracts th...
