"How old are you?" : Age Estimation with Tensors of Binary Gaussian Receptive Maps
In this paper we describe experiments with a method to automatically estimate human age from facial images. This system extends recent results with the use of a tensorial represen...

Toward robust estimation of specular flow
Specular flow is an important class of optical flow whose utility in visual tasks has gained much interest in contemporary vision research. Unfortunately, however, reliably estima...

Epipolar Constraints for Multiscale Matching
Many recent keypoint detectors associate a local scale (for multiscale detectors) or even a full affine frame (for affine-invariant detectors) to each detected keypoint. Although ...

Saliency Segmentation based on Learning and Graph Cut Refinement
Saliency detection is a well researched problem in computer vision. In previous work, most of the effort is spent on manually devising a saliency measure. Instead we propose a sim...

StyP-Boost: A Bilinear Boosting Algorithm for Learning Style-Parameterized Classifiers
We introduce a novel bilinear boosting algorithm, which extends the multi-class boosting framework of JointBoost to optimize a bilinear objective function. This allows style param...

Improving bag-of-features action recognition with non-local cues
Local space-time features have recently shown promising results within Bag-of-Features (BoF) approach to action recognition in video. Pure local features and descriptors, however,...

Classifying Textile Designs using Region Graphs
Markov random field pixel labelling is often used to obtain image segmentations in which each segment or region is labelled according to its attributes such as colour or texture. ...

Label propagation in complex video sequences using semi-supervised learning
We propose a novel directed graphical model for label propagation in lengthy and complex video sequences. Given hand-labelled start and end frames of a video sequence, a variation...
