We describe a learning-based method for low-level vision problems--estimating scenes from images. We generate a synthetic world of scenes and their corresponding rendered images, m...
We propose a novel Bayesian learning framework of hierarchical mixture model by incorporating prior hierarchical knowledge into concept representations of multi-level concept struc...
In this paper a method for estimating a rigid skeleton, including skinning weights, skeleton connectivity, and joint positions, given a sparse set of example poses is presented. I...
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular algorithm for parameter estimation in models with hidden variables. However, the algorithm has several non-trivial limitat...
This paper presents a variational method for supervised texture segmentation, which is based on ideas coming from the curve propagation theory. We assume that a preferable texture...
