Motion Segmentation with Accurate Boundaries - A Tensor Voting Approach
Producing an accurate motion flow field is very difficult at motion boundaries. We present a novel, noniterative approach for segmentation from image motion, based on two voting p...

Recognizing Objects in Adversarial Clutter: Breaking a Visual CAPTCHA
In this paper we explore object recognition in clutter. We test our object recognition techniques on Gimpy and EZGimpy, examples of visual CAPTCHAs. A CAPTCHA ("Completely Au...

Polydioptric Camera Design and 3D Motion Estimation
Most cameras used in computer vision applications are still based on the pinhole principle inspired by our own eyes. It has been found though that this is not necessarily the opti...

Adaptive View-Based Appearance Models
We present a method for online rigid object tracking using an adaptive view-based appearance model. When the object's pose trajectory crosses itself, our tracker has bounded ...

Practical Non-parametric Density Estimation on a Transformation Group for Vision
It is now common practice in machine vision to define the variability in an object's appearance in a factored manner, as a combination of shape and texture transformations. I...

Expectation Grammars: Leveraging High-Level Expectations for Activity Recognition
Video-based recognition and prediction of a temporally extended activity can benefit from a detailed description of high-level expectations about the activity. Stochastic grammars...
