Discriminative learning of visual words for 3D human pose estimation
This paper addresses the problem of recovering 3D human pose from a single monocular image, using a discriminative bag-of-words approach. In previous work, the visual words are le...

Correspondence-free multi-camera activity analysis and scene modeling
We propose a novel approach for activity analysis in multiple synchronized but uncalibrated static camera views. We assume that the topology of camera views is unknown and quite a...

High resolution motion layer decomposition using dual-space graph cuts
We introduce a novel energy minimization method to decompose a video into a set of super-resolved moving layers. The proposed energy corresponds to the cost of coding the sequence...

ANSIG - An analytic signature for permutation-invariant two-dimensional shape representation
Many applications require a computer representation of 2D shape, usually described by a set of 2D points. The challenge of this representation is that it must not only capture the...
