Learning to Localize Objects with Structured Output Regression
Sliding window classifiers are among the most successful and widely applied techniques for object localization. However, training is typically done in a way that is not specific to...

Online Sparse Matrix Gaussian Process Regression and Vision Applications
We present a new Gaussian Process inference algorithm, called Online Sparse Matrix Gaussian Processes (OSMGP), and demonstrate its merits with a few vision applications. The OSMGP ...

VideoCut: Removing Irrelevant Frames by Discovering the Object of Interest
We propose a novel method for removing irrelevant frames from a video given user-provided frame-level labeling for a very small number of frames. We first hypothesize a number of c...

Human Activity Recognition with Metric Learning
This paper proposes a metric learning based approach for human activity recognition with two main objectives: (1) reject unfamiliar activities and (2) learn with few examples. We s...

Surface Visibility Probabilities in 3D Cluttered Scenes
Many methods for 3D reconstruction in computer vision rely on probability models, for example, Bayesian reasoning. Here we introduce a probability model of surface visibilities in ...

Learning Spatial Context: Using Stuff to Find Things
The sliding window approach of detecting rigid objects (such as cars) is predicated on the belief that the object can be identified from the appearance in a small region around the...

Learning for Optical Flow Using Stochastic Optimization
Abstract. We present a technique for learning the parameters of a continuousstate Markov random field (MRF) model of optical flow, by minimizing the training loss for a set of grou...
