Non-negative graph embedding
We introduce a general formulation, called non-negative graph embedding, for non-negative data decomposition by integrating the characteristics of both intrinsic and penalty graph...

Simultaneous super-resolution and feature extraction for recognition of low-resolution faces
Face recognition degrades when faces are of very low resolution since many details about the difference between one person and another can only be captured in images of sufficient...

Computing minimal deformations: application to construction of statistical shape models
Nonlinear registration is mostly performed after initialization by a global, linear transformation (in this work, we focus on similarity transformations), computed by a linear reg...

A NURBS-based spectral reflectance descriptor with applications in computer vision and pattern recognition
In this paper, we present a surface reflectance descriptor based on the control points resulting from the interpolation of Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) curves to multispe...

Large margin pursuit for a Conic Section classifier
Learning a discriminant becomes substantially more difficult when the datasets are high-dimensional and the available samples are few. This is often the case in computer vision an...

Visual Synset: Towards a higher-level visual representation
We present a higher-level visual representation, visual synset, for object categorization. The visual synset improves the traditional bag of words representation with better discr...

Using contours to detect and localize junctions in natural images
Contours and junctions are important cues for perceptual organization and shape recognition. Detecting junctions locally has proved problematic because the image intensity surface...

The Kneed Walker for human pose tracking
The Kneed Walker is a physics-based model derived from a planar biomechanical characterization of human locomotion. By controlling torques at the knees, hips and torso, the model ...
