Combining advantages of shape and appearance features, we propose a novel model that integrates these two complementary features into a common framework for object categorization ...

In this work we deal with the problem of modelling and exploiting the interaction between the processes of image segmentation and object categorization. We propose a novel framewo...
Extended Abstract: We are exploring new techniques for active contour models (popularly known as “snakes”[1]) by combining active segmentation models with the constrained impli...
We present a new object segmentation method that is based on geodesic active contours with combined shape and appearance priors. It is known that using shape priors can significan...
This paper presents a novel method for detecting and localizing objects of a visual category in cluttered real-world scenes. Our approach considers object categorization and figure...
