Towards recognizing "cool": can end users help computer vision recognize subjective attributes of objects in images?
Recent computer vision approaches are aimed at richer image interpretations that extend the standard recognition of objects in images (e.g., cars) to also recognize object attribu...

What does classifying more than 10,000 image categories tell us?
Image classification is a critical task for both humans and computers. One of the challenges lies in the large scale of the semantic space. In particular, humans can recognize tens...

What Is a Good Nearest Neighbors Algorithm for Finding Similar Patches in Images?
Many computer vision algorithms require searching a set of images for similar patches, which is a very expensive operation. In this work, we compare and evaluate a number of neares...
