A good model of object shape is essential in applications such as segmentation, object detection, inpainting and graphics. For example, when performing segmentation, local constra...
This paper investigates the role that nonlinear camera response functions (CRFs) have on image deblurring. In particular, we show how nonlinear CRFs can cause a spatially invarian...

We describe a novel max-margin parameter learning approach for structured prediction problems under certain non-decomposable performance measures. Structured prediction is a commo...
We present a discriminative latent topic model for scene recognition. The capacity of our model is originated from the modeling of two types of visual contexts, i.e., the category...
We propose a nonparametric framework based on the beta process for discovering temporal patterns within a heterogenous video collection. Starting from quantized local motion descr...
Simply choosing one model out of a large set of possibilities for a given vision task is a surprisingly difficult problem, especially if there is limited evaluation data with whi...
We present a new pedestrian detector that improves both in speed and quality over state-of-the-art. By efficiently handling different scales and transferring computation from tes...

Top-down visual saliency facilities object localization by providing a discriminative representation of target objects and a probability map for reducing the search space. In this...
We introduce two novel methods to improve the performance of wide area video surveillance applications by using scene features. First, we evaluate the drift in intrinsic and extri...
This paper focus on understanding human visual system when it decodes or recognizes facial expressions. Results presented can be exploited by the computer vision research communit...
