An Extended Phase Field Higher-Order Active Contour Model for Networks and Its Application to Road Network Extraction from VHR S
This paper addresses the segmentation from an image of entities that have the form of a `network', i.e. the region in the image corresponding to the entity is composed of bran...

Automatic Image Colorization Via Multimodal Predictions
We aim to color greyscale images automatically, without any manual intervention. The color proposition could then be interactively corrected by user-provided color landmarks if nec...

Multiple Tree Models for Occlusion and Spatial Constraints in Human Pose Estimation
Abstract. Tree-structured models have been widely used for human pose estimation, in either 2D or 3D. While such models allow efficient learning and inference, they fail to capture...
