This paper presents a new image segmentation framework which employs a shape prior in the form of an edge strength function to introduce a higher-level influence on the segmentati...
Tools for automatic image understanding for managing operator workloads are essential. One common task for image analysts is the scanning large collections of real-time images loo...
We consider the problem of visual categorization with minimal supervision during training. We propose a partbased model that loosely captures structural information. We represent ...
We consider the problem of estimating the 3D shape and reflectance properties of an object made of a single material from a calibrated set of multiple views. To model reflectance, ...
—Detecting objects in cluttered scenes and estimating articulated human body parts from 2D images are two challenging problems in computer vision. The difficulty is particularly...
