This paper compares two methods for object localization from contours: shape context and chamfer matching of templates. In the light of our experiments, we suggest improvements to...

A visual word lexicon can be constructed by clustering primitive visual features, and a visual object can be described by a set of visual words. Such a "bag-of-words" re...
Groupwise shape registration of raw edge sequence is addressed. Automatically extracted edge maps are treated as noised input shape of the deformable object and their registration...
We present an approach for illumination and affineinvariant point matching using ordinal features. Ordinal measures for matching only consider the order between pixels and not the...
Real-world actions occur often in crowded, dynamic environments. This poses a difficult challenge for current approaches to video event detection because it is difficult to segmen...
