Equivalence of Julesz Ensembles and FRAME Models
In the past thirty years, research on textures has been pursued along two different lines. The first line of research, pioneered by Julesz (1962, IRE Transactions of Information Th...

Morphable Surface Models
Abstract. We describe a novel automatic technique for finding a dense correspondence between a pair of n-dimensional surfaces with arbitrary topologies. This method employs a diffe...

How Optimal Depth Cue Integration Depends on the Task
Bayesian parameter estimation can be used to generate statistically optimal solutions to the problem of cue integration. However, the complexity and dimensionality of these solutio...

Evaluation of Interest Point Detectors
Many different low-level feature detectors exist and it is widely agreed that the evaluation of detectors is important. In this paper we introduce two evaluation criteria for inter...

Recognition without Correspondence using Multidimensional Receptive Field Histograms
The appearance of an object is composed of local structure. This local structure can be described and characterized by a vector of local features measured by local operators such a...

Depth from Defocus vs. Stereo: How Different Really Are They?
Depth from Focus (DFF) and Depth from Defocus (DFD) methods are theoretically unified with the geometric triangulation principle. Fundamentally, the depth sensitivities of DFF and ...

The Earth Mover's Distance as a Metric for Image Retrieval
We investigate the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval. The EMD is based on the minimal cost ...

Control of a Camera for Active Vision: Foveal Vision, Smooth Tracking and Saccade
Several characteristics of the human oculomotor system have been suggested to be useful also for active vision mechanisms. Among others, foveal vision and a tracking scheme based o...

A Parametric Texture Model Based on Joint Statistics of Complex Wavelet Coefficients
We present a universal statistical model for texture images in the context of an overcomplete complex wavelet transform. The model is parameterized by a set of statistics computed ...

Probabilistic Models of Appearance for 3-D Object Recognition
We describe how to model the appearance of a 3-D object using multiple views, learn such a model from training images, and use the model for object recognition. The model uses pro...
