In this paper we explore the use of shapes of noses for
performing partial human biometrics. The basic idea is to
represent nasal surfaces using indexed collections of isocurves,...

Widespread use of surveillance cameras in offices and
other business establishments, pose a significant threat to
the privacy of the employees and visitors. The challenge of

This paper addresses real-time automatic visual tracking,
labeling and classification of a variable number of
objects such as pedestrians or/and vehicles, under timevarying
illu...
Graph-cuts based algorithms are effective for a variety
of segmentation tasks in computer vision. Ongoing research
is focused toward making the algorithms even more general,
as ...
Given an arbitrary image, our goal is to segment all distinct
texture subimages. This is done by discovering distinct,
cohesive groups of spatially repeating patterns, called tex...
In this paper, we introduce a new approach for modeling
visual context. For this purpose, we consider the leaves of a
hierarchical segmentation tree as elementary units. Each
le...

The intrinsic image decomposition aims to retrieve “intrinsic”
properties of an image, such as shading and reflectance.
To make it possible to quantitatively compare
differe...

We present an algorithm for detecting human actions
based upon a single given video example of such actions.
The proposed method is unsupervised, does not require
learning, segm...
We propose an algorithm for large displacement opti-
cal flow estimation which does not require the commonly
used coarse-to-fine warping strategy. It is based on a
quadratic rel...
In this paper we pursue the task of aligning an ensemble
of images in an unsupervised manner. This task has
been commonly referred to as “congealing” in literature.
A form o...
