Low-rank approximation of image collections (e.g., via
PCA) is a popular tool in many areas of computer vision.
Yet, surprisingly little is known justifying the observation

Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
Dynamic appearance is one of the most important cues for tracking and identifying moving people. However, direct modeling spatio-temporal variations of such appearance is often a ...

We present a dynamic inference algorithm in a globally parameterized nonlinear manifold and demonstrate it on the problem of visual tracking. An appearance manifold is usually non...
This paper presents a system for modeling lichens and simulating their propagation and growth in a virtual scene. Lichens colonize almost every substrate in nature and play an imp...
