We introduce novel discriminative learning algorithms for dynamical systems. Models such as Conditional Random Fields or Maximum Entropy Markov Models outperform the generative Hi...
We present an approach for measuring similarity between visual entities (images or videos) based on matching internal self-similarities. What is correlated across images (or acros...
Matching and registration of shapes is a key issue in Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Medical Image Analysis. This paper presents a shape representation framework based ...
We propose a method for learning using a set of feature representations which retrieve different amounts of information at different costs. The goal is to create a more efficient ...

A novel algorithm for robustly segmenting changes between different images of a scene is presented. This computationally efficient algorithm is based on a non-linear comparison of...
Considerable advances have been made in learning to recognize and localize visual object classes. Simple bag-offeature approaches label each pixel or patch independently. More adv...
We present a method for the simultaneous detection and segmentation of people from static images. The proposed technique requires no manual segmentation during training, and explo...
We present an algorithm for performing Lambertian photometric stereo in the presence of shadows. The algorithm has three novel features. First, a fast graph cuts based method is u...
We present a new algorithm to detect humans in still images utilizing covariance matrices as object descriptors. Since these descriptors do not lie on a vector space, well known m...
This paper proposes a new approach to 3D reconstruction of piecewise planar objects based on two image regularities, connectivity and perspective symmetry. First, we formulate the...
