The Panum Proxy Algorithm for Dense Stereo Matching over a Volume of Interest
Stereo matching algorithms conventionally match over a range of disparities sufficient to encompass all visible 3D scene points. Human vision however does not do this. It works ov...

CSIFT: A SIFT Descriptor with Color Invariant Characteristics
SIFT has been proven to be the most robust local invariant feature descriptor. SIFT is designed mainly for gray images. However, color provides valuable information in object desc...

Robust Fragments-based Tracking using the Integral Histogram
We present a novel algorithm (which we call "FragTrack") for tracking an object in a video sequence. The template object is represented by multiple image fragments or pa...

Object Class Recognition Using Multiple Layer Boosting with Heterogeneous Features
We combine local texture features (PCA-SIFT), global features (shape context), and spatial features within a single multi-layer AdaBoost model of object class recognition. The fir...

Semi-Supervised Adapted HMMs for Unusual Event Detection
We address the problem of temporal unusual event detection. Unusual events are characterized by a number of features (rarity, unexpectedness, and relevance) that limit the applica...
