Abstract. This paper presents a novel nonparametric clustering algorithm called evolving mean shift (EMS) algorithm. The algorithm iteratively shrinks a dataset and generates well ...
Abstract— Mobile robots rely on the ability to sense the geometry of their local environment in order to avoid obstacles or to explore the surroundings. For this task, dedicated ...

In this paper, we address the tasks of detecting, segmenting, parsing, and matching deformable objects. We use a novel probabilistic object model that we call a hierarchical defor...
Scalable image retrieval systems usually involve hierarchical quantization of local image descriptors, which produces a visual vocabulary for inverted indexing of images. Although ...
