We present a hierarchical generative model for object recognition that is constructed by weakly-supervised learning. A key component is a novel, adaptive patch feature whose width...
Several authors have noticed that the common representation of images as vectors is sub-optimal. The process of vectorization eliminates spatial relations between some of the near...
We present a systematic procedure for selecting facial fiducial points associated with diverse structural characteristics of a human face. We identify such characteristics from th...

We introduce spatial PACT (Principal component Analysis of Census Transform histograms), a new representation for recognizing instances and categories of places or scenes. Both pl...
By representing images and image prototypes by linear subspaces spanned by "tangent vectors" (derivatives of an image with respect to translation, rotation, etc.), impre...
