Image understanding requires not only individually estimating elements of the visual world but also capturing the interplay among them. In this paper, we provide a framework for p...
A normalized, power-weighted averaging filter (NPF) is a very good approximation to the well-know local maximum and minimum filters along the object edges and offers noise reducti...
Current feature-based object recognition methods use information derived from local image patches. For robustness, features are engineered for invariance to various transformation...
We present an object recognition system that locates an object, identifies its parts, and segments out its contours. A key distinction of our approach is that we use long, salien...
The paper considers detecting and tracking multiple moving objects in real time by a multiagent active vision system. The main objective of the envisioned system is to maintain an ...
