A Multi-View Probabilistic Model for 3D Object Classes
We propose a novel probabilistic framework for learning visual models of 3D object categories by combining appearance information and geometric constraints. Objects are represen...

Granularity-tunable Gradients Partition (GGP) Descriptors for Human Detection
This paper proposes a novel descriptor, granularitytunable gradients partition (GGP), for human detection. The concept granularity is used to define the spatial and angular unce...

On the burstiness of visual elements
Burstiness, a phenomenon initially observed in text re- trieval, is the property that a given visual element appears more times in an image than a statistically independent mode...
