Visible Surface Reconstruction from Normals with Discontinuity Consideration
Given a dense set of imperfect normals obtained by photometric stereo or shape from shading, this paper presents an optimization algorithm which alternately optimizes until conver...

Multiclass Object Recognition with Sparse, Localized Features
We apply a biologically inspired model of visual object recognition to the multiclass object categorization problem. Our model modifies that of Serre, Wolf, and Poggio. As in that...

A Visual Vocabulary for Flower Classification
We investigate to what extent `bag of visual words' models can be used to distinguish categories which have significant visual similarity. To this end we develop and optimize...

Multi-Target Tracking - Linking Identities using Bayesian Network Inference
Multi-target tracking requires locating the targets and labeling their identities. The latter is a challenge when many targets, with indistinct appearances, frequently occlude one...

Modeling Correspondences for Multi-Camera Tracking Using Nonlinear Manifold Learning and Target Dynamics
Multi-camera tracking systems often must maintain consistent identity labels of the targets across views to recover 3D trajectories and fully take advantage of the additional info...

An Intensity-augmented Ordinal Measure for Visual Correspondence
Determining the correspondence of image patches is one of the most important problems in Computer Vision. When the intensity space is variant due to several factors such as the ca...

Hierarchical Procrustes Matching for Shape Retrieval
We introduce Hierarchical Procrustes Matching (HPM), a segment-based shape matching algorithm which avoids problems associated with purely global or local methods and performs wel...

Multiple Object Class Detection with a Generative Model
In this paper we propose an approach capable of simultaneous recognition and localization of multiple object classes using a generative model. A novel hierarchical representation ...

A Geodesic Active Contour Framework for Finding Glass
This paper addresses the problem of finding objects made of glass (or other transparent materials) in images. Since the appearance of glass objects depends for the most part on wha...
