Optimal Correspondences from Pairwise Constraints
Correspondence problems are of great importance in computer vision. They appear as subtasks in many applications such as object recognition, merging partial 3D reconstructions a...

Optimizing Parametric Total Variation Models
One of the key factors for the success of recent energy minimization methods is that they seek to compute global solutions. Even for non-convex energy functionals, optimization ...

Tracking a Hand Manipulating an Object
We present a method for tracking a hand while it is interacting with an object. This setting is arguably the one where hand-tracking has most practical relevance, but poses signi...

Power watersheds: a new image segmentation framework extending graph cuts, random walker and optimal spanning forest
In this work, we extend a common framework for seeded image segmentation that includes the graph cuts, ran- dom walker, and shortest path optimization algorithms. Viewing an ima...

Quantifying Contextual Information for Object Detection
Context is critical for minimising ambiguity in object de- tection. In this work, a novel context modelling framework is proposed without the need of any prior scene segmen- tat...

Feature-Centric Efficient Subwindow Search
embedded in a sliding-window scheme. Such exhaustive search involves massive computation. Efficient Subwindow Search (ESS) [11] avoids this by means of branch and bound. However...

Implicit Color Segmentation Features for Pedestrian Detection
We investigate the problem of pedestrian detection in still images. Sliding window classifiers, notably using the Histogram-of-Gradient (HOG) features proposed by Dalal and Trig...

Finding Good Composition in Panoramic Scenes
We introduce a new problem of automatic photo composition, and present an effective technique for finding good views within a panoramic scene. Instead of applying heuristic rule...

Subspace matching: Unique solutions to point matching with geometric constraints
Finding correspondences between feature points is one of the most relevant problems in the whole set of visual tasks. In this paper we address the problem of matching a feature ...

A Theory of Active Object Localization
We present some theoretical results related to the problem of actively searching for a target in a 3D environment, under the constraint of a maximum search time. We define the o...
