: Significant progress has been made by the computer vision community in recent years along two fronts: (i) developing complex spatial-temporal models for object registration and t...
Given an image, we propose a hierarchical generative
model that classifies the overall scene, recognizes and segments
each object component, as well as annotates the image
with ...
The chapter describes visual classification by a hierarchy of semantic fragments. In fragment-based classification, objects within a class are represented by common sub-structures ...
Visual vocabulary serves as a fundamental component in many computer vision tasks, such as object recognition, visual search, and scene modeling. While state-of-the-art approaches...
This paper presents a system for interaction with a display via hand pointing, where a single CCD camera on top of the screen is directed towards the viewers. An attention mechani...
