Filtered Component Analysis to Increase Robustness to Local Minima in Appearance Models
Appearance Models (AM) are commonly used to model appearance and shape variation of objects in images. In particular, they have proven useful to detection, tracking, and synthesis...

3D Occlusion Inference from Silhouette Cues
We consider the problem of detecting and accounting for the presence of occluders in a 3D scene based on silhouette cues in video streams obtained from multiple, calibrated views....

On the Spacetime Geometry of Galilean Cameras
In this paper, a projection model is presented for cameras moving at constant velocity (which we refer to as Galilean cameras). To that end, we introduce the concept of spacetime ...

Learning Object Material Categories via Pairwise Discriminant Analysis
In this paper, we investigate linear discriminant analysis (LDA) methods for multiclass classification problems in hyperspectral imaging. We note that LDA does not consider pairwi...

Variable Bandwidth Image Denoising Using Image-based Noise Models
This paper introduces a variational formulation for image denoising based on a quadratic function over kernels of variable bandwidth. These kernels are scale adaptive and reflect ...

Two thresholds are better than one
The concept of the Bayesian optimal single threshold is a well established and widely used classification technique. In this paper, we prove that when spatial cohesion is assumed ...

What makes a good model of natural images?
Many low-level vision algorithms assume a prior probability over images, and there has been great interest in trying to learn this prior from examples. Since images are very non G...

Beyond bottom-up: Incorporating task-dependent influences into a computational model of spatial attention
A critical function in both machine vision and biological vision systems is attentional selection of scene regions worthy of further analysis by higher-level processes such as obj...

Using Geometry Invariants for Camera Response Function Estimation
In this paper, we present a new single-image camera response function (CRF) estimation method using geometry invariants (GI). We derive mathematical properties and geometric inter...
