Use Bin-Ratio Information for Category and Scene Classification
In this paper we propose using bin-ratio information, which is collected from the ratios between bin values of histograms, for scene and category classification. To use such info...

The Cluttered Background Problem for Active Contours: A Minimum-Latency Solution
We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels), embedd...

Super-Resolution of Range Data in Dynamic Environments Using a Gaussian Framework
We present a flexible method for fusing information from optical and range sensors based on an accelerated highdimensional filtering approach. Our system takes as input a sequen...

Specular Surface Reconstruction from Sparse Reflection Correspondences
We present a practical approach for surface reconstruction of smooth mirror-like objects using sparse reflection correspondences (RCs). Assuming finite object motion with a fix...

Naming People from Dialog: Temporal Grouping and Weak Supervision
We address the character identification problem in movies and television videos: assigning names to faces on the screen. Most prior work on person recognition in video assumes s...

Globally Optimal Pixel Labeling Algorithms for Tree Metrics
We consider pixel labeling problems where the label set forms a tree, and where the observations are also labels. Such problems arise in feature-space analysis with a very large...

Fast Image Alignment in the Fourier Domain
In this paper we propose a framework for gradient descent image alignment in the Fourier domain. Specifically, we propose an extension to the classical Lucas & Kanade (LK) a...

On improving point-based 3D recognition
We present a framework that retains ambiguity in feature matching to increase the performance of 3D object recognition systems. Whereas previous systems removed ambiguous correspo...

Locally-Parametric Pictorial Structures
Pictorial structure (PS) models are extensively used for part-based recognition of scenes, people, animals and multi-part objects. To achieve tractability, the structure and param...
