—Object detection is challenging when the object class exhibits large within-class variations. In this work, we show that foreground-background classification (detection) and wit...

Distance-based methods in machine learning and pattern recognition have to rely on a metric distance between points in the input space. Instead of specifying a metric a priori, we...
Maji and Berg [13] have recently introduced an explicit feature map approximating the intersection kernel. This enables efficient learning methods for linear kernels to be applied...
Boundary detection constitutes a crucial step in many computer vision tasks. We present a novel learning approach to automatically construct a boundary detector for natural images...
Recently, supervised dimensionality reduction has been gaining attention, owing to the realization that data labels are often available and indicate important underlying structure...
