Tracking a large number of objects from multiple views
We propose a multi-object multi-camera framework for tracking large numbers of tightly-spaced objects that rapidly move in three dimensions. We formulate the problem of finding co...

Improving accuracy of geometric parameter estimation using projected score method
A fundamental problem in computer vision (CV) is the estimation of geometric parameters from multiple observations obtained from images; examples of such problems range from ellip...

Learning image similarity from Flickr groups using Stochastic Intersection Kernel MAchines
Measuring image similarity is a central topic in computer vision. In this paper, we learn similarity from Flickr groups and use it to organize photos. Two images are similar if th...

Local distance functions: A taxonomy, new algorithms, and an evaluation
We present a taxonomy for local distance functions where most existing algorithms can be regarded as approximations of the geodesic distance defined by a metric tensor. We categor...

Matching as a non-cooperative game
With this paper we offer a game-theoretic perspective for the all-pervasive matching problem in computer vision. Specifically, we formulate the matching problem as a (population) ...

SURF Tracking
Most motion-based tracking algorithms assume that objects undergo rigid motion, which is most likely disobeyed in real world. In this paper, we present a novel motionbased trackin...

Attached shadow coding: Estimating surface normals from shadows under unknown reflectance and lighting conditions
We present a novel technique, termed attached shadow coding, for estimating surface normals from shadows when the reflectance and lighting conditions are unknown. Our key idea is ...

Minimizing energy functions on 4-connected lattices using elimination
We describe an energy minimization algorithm for functions defined on 4-connected lattices, of the type usually encountered in problems involving images. Such functions are often ...
