Abstract. Activity inference based on object use has received considerable recent attention. Such inference requires statistical models that map activities to the objects used in p...
We propose textural features, which are invariant to illumination spectrum and extremely robust to illumination direction. They require only a single training image per texture an...
This article presents a method aiming at quantifying the visual similarity between two images. This kind of problem is recurrent in many applications such as object recognition, i...
We propose a Visual Search Engine (ViSE) as a semi-automatic component in a surveillance system using networked cameras. The ViSE aims to assist the monitoring operation of huge a...

Many classification tasks benefit from integrating manifold learning and semi-supervised learning. By formulating the learning task in a semi-supervised manner, we propose a novel...
