In this paper, we propose an unsupervised approach to select representative face samples (models) from raw videos and build an appearance-based face recognition system. The approa...
Thin plate spline (TPS) transformations have been applied to non-rigid shape matching with impressive results. However, existing methods often use a sparse set of point correspond...
We present a novel method for the discovery and detection of visual object categories based on decompositions using topic models. The approach is capable of learning a compact and...
Spatial classification is the task of learning models to predict class labels based on the features of entities as well as the spatial relationships to other entities and their fe...
This paper proposes a state based approach to gesture learning and recognition. Using spatial clustering and temporal alignment, each gesture is defined to be an ordered sequence ...
