— There has been significant progress recently in object recognition research, but many of the current approaches still fail for object classes with few distinctive features, an...
We introduce an approach to feature-based object recognition, using maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation under a Markov random field (MRF) model. This approach provides an effici...
Local descriptors are increasingly used for the task of object recognition because of their perceived robustness with respect to occlusions and to global geometrical deformations....
Learning models for detecting and classifying object categories is a challenging problem in machine vision. While discriminative approaches to learning and classification have, in...
The robot described in this paper learns words that relate to objects and their attributes and also learns concepts, which may be recursive, that involve relationships between sev...
