In recent years, large databases of natural images have
become increasingly popular in the evaluation of face and
object recognition algorithms. However, Pinto et al. previously

This paper discusses the question: Can we improve the recognition of objects by using their spatial context? We start from Bag-of-Words models and use the Pascal 2007 dataset. We u...

We generalize reflection symmetry detection to a curved
glide-reflection symmetry detection problem. We propose
a unifying, local feature-based approach for curved glidereflectio...
Global shape information is an effective top-down complement
to bottom-up figure-ground segmentation as well
as a useful constraint to avoid drift during adaptive tracking.
We p...
A Bayesian marked point process (MPP) model is developed
to detect and count people in crowded scenes. The
model couples a spatial stochastic process governing number
and placem...
