We introduce a novel type of total variation regularizer, TVS1 , for cyclic structures such as angles or hue values. The method handles the periodicity of values in a simple and c...
We present a new paradigm for tracking objects in video in the presence of other similar objects. This branch-andtrack paradigm is also useful in the absence of motion, for the di...
This paper addresses the problem of 3D motion reconstruction from a series of 2D projections under low reconstructibility. Reconstructibility defines the accuracy of a 3D reconst...
Nearly every structured prediction problem in computer vision requires approximate inference due to large and complex dependencies among output labels. While graphical models prov...
This paper extends classical object pose and relative camera motion estimation algorithms for imaging sensors sampling the scene through light-paths. Many algorithms in multi-view...

Color is known to be highly discriminative for many object recognition tasks, but is difficult to infer from uncontrolled images in which the illuminant is not known. Traditional...

In this paper we explore the idea of using high-level semantic concepts, also called attributes, to represent human actions from videos and argue that attributes enable the constr...
Active learning and crowdsourcing are promising ways to efficiently build up training sets for object recognition, but thus far techniques are tested in artificially controlled ...
We present a human-centric paradigm for scene understanding. Our approach goes beyond estimating 3D scene geometry and predicts the “workspace” of a human which is represented...

We propose a dense local region detector to extract features suitable for image matching and object recognition tasks. Whereas traditional local interest operators rely on repeata...
