Joint tracking of features and edges
Sparse features have traditionally been tracked from frame to frame independently of one another. We propose a framework in which features are tracked jointly. Combining ideas fro...

Estimating age, gender, and identity using first name priors
Recognizing people in images is one of the foremost challenges in computer vision. It is important to remember that consumer photography has a highly social aspect. The photograph...

Object tracking and detection after occlusion via numerical hybrid local and global mode-seeking
Given an object model and a black-box measure of similarity between the model and candidate targets, we consider visual object tracking as a numerical optimization problem. During...

Visual tracking via incremental Log-Euclidean Riemannian subspace learning
Recently, a novel Log-Euclidean Riemannian metric [28] is proposed for statistics on symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices. Under this metric, distances and Riemannian means ...

Global pose estimation using non-tree models
We propose a novel global pose estimation method to detect body parts of articulated objects in images based on non-tree graph models. There are two kinds of edges defined in the ...

Constrained spectral clustering through affinity propagation
Pairwise constraints specify whether or not two samples should be in one cluster. Although it has been successful to incorporate them into traditional clustering methods, such as ...

Unsupervised feature selection via distributed coding for multi-view object recognition
Object recognition accuracy can be improved when information from multiple views is integrated, but information in each view can often be highly redundant. We consider the problem...

In defense of Nearest-Neighbor based image classification
State-of-the-art image classification methods require an intensive learning/training stage (using SVM, Boosting, etc.) In contrast, non-parametric Nearest-Neighbor (NN) based imag...
