Model Order Selection and Cue Combination for Image Segmentation
Model order selection and cue combination are both difficult open problems in the area of clustering. In this work we build upon stability-based approaches to develop a new method...

Tunable Kernels for Tracking
We present a tunable representation for tracking that simultaneously encodes appearance and geometry in a manner that enables the use of mean-shift iterations for tracking. The cl...

Counting Crowded Moving Objects
In its full generality, motion analysis of crowded objects necessitates recognition and segmentation of each moving entity. The difficulty of these tasks increases considerably wi...

Incorporating the Boltzmann Prior in Object Detection Using SVM
In this paper we discuss object detection when only a small number of training examples are given. Specifically, we show how to incorporate a simple prior on the distribution of n...

Augmenting Shape with Appearance in Vehicle Category Recognition
Shape is an important cue for generic object recognition but can be insufficient without other cues such as object appearance. We explore a number of ways in which the geometric a...

Incremental learning of object detectors using a visual shape alphabet
We address the problem of multiclass object detection. Our aims are to enable models for new categories to benefit from the detectors built previously for other categories, and fo...
