Saliency mechanisms play an important role when visual recognition must be performed in cluttered scenes. We propose a computational definition of saliency that deviates from exis...
This paper introduces an edge-based object recognition method that is robust with respect to clutter, occlusion and object deformations. The method combines the use of local featu...
A fully automated architecture for object-based region of interest (ROI) detection is proposed. ROI's are defined as regions containing user defined objects of interest, and ...
Abstract— Autonomous mobile agents require object recognition for high level interpretation and localization in complex scenes. In urban environments, recognition of buildings mi...
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...
