Abstract. We develop an object detection method combining top-down recognition with bottom-up image segmentation. There are two main steps in this method: a hypothesis generation s...
This paper presents a new technique which incrementally builds a hierarchical discriminant regression (IHDR) tree for generation of motion based robot reactions. The robot learned...
The Active Appearance Model (AAM) is a powerful generative method for modeling and registering deformable visual objects. Most methods for AAM fitting utilize a linear parameter u...
In this paper we present a method for learning classspecific
features for recognition. Recently a greedy layerwise
procedure was proposed to initialize weights of deep
belief ne...

Object recognition has made great strides recently. However, the best methods, such as those based on kernelSVMs are highly computationally intensive. The problem of how to accele...
