In patch-based object recognition, there are two important issues on the codebook generation: (1) resolution: a coarse codebook lacks sufficient discriminative power, and an over-...
In this paper we introduce two new methods for solving binary quadratic problems. While spectral relaxation methods have been the workhorse subroutine for a wide variety of comput...
We present a higher-level visual representation, visual synset, for object categorization. The visual synset improves the traditional bag of words representation with better discr...

Calibrating a network of cameras with non-overlapping views is an important and challenging problem in computer vision. In this paper, we present a novel technique for camera cali...

We present a variational integration of nonlinear shape statistics into a Mumford?Shah based segmentation process. The nonlinear statistics are derived from a set of training silho...
