Learning stick-figure models using nonparametric Bayesian priors over trees
We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...

View-invariant recognition of body pose from space-time templates
We propose a new template-based approach for viewinvariant recognition of body poses, based on geometric constraints derived from the motion of body point triplets. In addition to...

Dimensionality reduction using covariance operator inverse regression
We consider the task of dimensionality reduction for regression (DRR) whose goal is to find a low dimensional representation of input covariates, while preserving the statistical ...

A three-point minimal solution for panoramic stitching with lens distortion
We present a minimal solution for aligning two images taken by a rotating camera from point correspondences. The solution particularly addresses the case where there is lens disto...

Learning Bayesian Networks with qualitative constraints
Graphical models such as Bayesian Networks (BNs) are being increasingly applied to various computer vision problems. One bottleneck in using BN is that learning the BN model param...

Unsupervised discovery of visual object class hierarchies
Objects in the world can be arranged into a hierarchy based on their semantic meaning (e.g. organism ? animal ? feline ? cat). What about defining a hierarchy based on the visual ...

Viewpoint-independent object class detection using 3D Feature Maps
This paper presents a 3D approach to multi-view object class detection. Most existing approaches recognize object classes for a particular viewpoint or combine classifiers for a f...

Automatic non-rigid registration of 3D dynamic data for facial expression synthesis and transfer
Automatic non-rigid registration of 3D time-varying data is fundamental in many vision and graphics applications such as facial expression analysis, synthesis, and recognition. De...

Who killed the directed model?
Prior distributions are useful for robust low-level vision, and undirected models (e.g. Markov Random Fields) have become a central tool for this purpose. Though sometimes these p...
