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...

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 ...

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...

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...

Illumination Normalization with Time-dependent Intrinsic Images for Video Surveillance
Cast shadows produce troublesome effects for video surveillance systems, typically for object tracking from a fixed viewpoint, since it yields appearance variations of objects dep...

Directional Histogram Model for Three-Dimensional Shape Similarity
In this paper, we propose a novel shape representation we call Directional Histogram Model (DHM). It captures the shape variation of an object and is invariant to scaling and rigi...
