Simultaneously Fitting and Segmenting Multiple-Structure Data with Outliers
Abstract—We propose a robust fitting framework, called Adaptive Kernel-Scale Weighted Hypotheses (AKSWH), to segment multiplestructure data even in the presence of a large number...

Detachable Object Detection: Segmentation and Depth Ordering from Short-Baseline Video
—We describe an approach for segmenting a moving image into regions that correspond to surfaces in the scene that are partially surrounded by the medium. It integrates both appea...

CPMC: Automatic Object Segmentation Using Constrained Parametric Min-Cuts
—We present a novel framework to generate and rank plausible hypotheses for the spatial extent of objects in images using bottom-up computational processes and mid-level selectio...

Exploring Context and Content Links in Social Media: A Latent Space Method
—Social media networks contain both content and context-specific information. Most existing methods work with either of the two for the purpose of multimedia mining and retrieva...

Face Recognition Using Sparse Approximated Nearest Points between Image Sets
—We propose an efficient and robust solution for image set classification. A joint representation of an image set is proposed which includes the image samples of the set and thei...

Scribble Tracker: A Matting-Based Approach for Robust Tracking
—Model updating is a critical problem in tracking. Inaccurate extraction of the foreground and background information in model adaptation would cause the model to drift and degra...

Fast Joint Estimation of Silhouettes and Dense 3D Geometry from Multiple Images
—We propose a probabilistic formulation of joint silhouette extraction and 3D reconstruction given a series of calibrated 2D images. Instead of segmenting each image separately i...

Image Signature: Highlighting Sparse Salient Regions
—We introduce a simple image descriptor referred to as the image signature. We show, within the theoretical framework of sparse signal mixing, that this quantity spatially approx...
