Action recognition is an important and challenging topic in computer vision, with many important applications including video surveillance, automated cinematography and understand...
We consider regions of images that exhibit smooth statistics, and pose the question of characterizing
the “essence” of these regions that matters for visual recognition. Ideal...

The design of a general purpose artificial vision system capable of recognizing arbitrarily complex threedimensional objects without human intervention is still a challenging task...
The accurate localization of facial features plays a fundamental
role in any face recognition pipeline. Constrained
local models (CLM) provide an effective approach to localizati...
This chapter proposes a representation of rigid three-dimensional (3D) objects in terms of local affine-invariant descriptors of their images and the spatial relationships between ...
