The aim of salient point detection is to find distinctive events in images. Salient features are generally determined from the local differential structure of images. They focus o...
We construct a Bayesian model that integrates topdown with bottom-up criteria, capitalizing on their relative merits to obtain figure-ground segmentation that is shape-specific an...
Markov Random Field, or MRF, models are a powerful tool for modeling images. While much progress has been made in algorithms for inference in MRFs, learning the parameters of an M...
We present a scalable approach to recognizing and describing complex activities in video sequences. We are interested in long-term, sequential activities that may have several par...
Kernel machines have recently been considered as a promising solution for implicit surface modelling. A key challenge of machine learning solutions is how to fit implicit shape mo...
