Toward A Discriminative Codebook: Codeword Selection across Multi-resolution
In patch-based object recognition, there are two important issues on the codebook generation: (1) resolution: a coarse codebook lacks sufficient discriminative power, and an over-...

Detecting Specular Surfaces on Natural Images
Recognizing and localizing specular (or mirror-like) surfaces from a single image is a great challenge to computer vision. Unlike other materials, the appearance of a specular sur...
