Polarization: Beneficial for Visibility Enhancement?
When imaging in scattering media there is a need to enhance visibility. Some approaches have used polarized images in this context with apparent success. These methods take adva...

Learning Optimized MAP Estimates in Continuously-Valued MRF Models
We present a new approach for the discriminative training of continuous-valued Markov Random Field (MRF) model parameters. In our approach we train the MRF model by optimizing t...

Stereo Matching with Nonparametric Smoothness Priors in Feature Space
We propose a novel formulation of stereo matching that considers each pixel as a feature vector. Under this view, matching two or more images can be cast as matching point clouds i...

Stereo Matching in the Presence of Sub-Pixel Calibration Errors
Stereo matching commonly requires rectified images that are computed from calibrated cameras. Since all under- lying parametric camera models are only approximations, calibratio...

Mutual Information-based Stereo Matching Combined with SIFT Descriptor in Log-chromaticity Color Space
Radiometric variations between input images can seriously degrade the performance of stereo matching algorithms. In this situation, mutual information is a very popular and powe...

Joint Depth and Alpha Matte Optimization via Fusion of Stereo and Time-of-Flight Sensor
We present a new approach to iteratively estimate both high-quality depth map and alpha matte from a single image or a video sequence. Scene depth, which is invariant to illumin...

Multiple Instance Feature for Robust Part-based Object Detection
Feature misalignment in object detection refers to the phenomenon that features which re up in some positive detection windows do not re up in other pos- itive detection windo...

Recognizing Indoor Scenes
We propose a scheme for indoor place identi cation based on the recognition of global scene views. Scene views are encoded using a holistic representation that provides low-resolu...

Constrained Clustering via Spectral Regularization
We propose a novel framework for constrained spectral clustering with pairwise constraints which specify whether two objects belong to the same cluster or not. Unlike previous m...

Multiplicative Nonnegative Graph Embedding
In this paper, we study the problem of nonnegative graph embedding, originally investigated in [14] for reaping the benefits from both nonnegative data factorization and the spe...
