Histograms of local appearance descriptors are a popular representation for visual recognition. They are highly discriminant with good resistance to local occlusions and to geomet...
A successful representation of objects in the literature is as a collection of patches, or parts, with a certain appearance and position. The relative locations of the different p...
We consider the important challenge of recognizing a variety of deformable object classes in images. Of fundamental importance and particular difficulty in this setting is the pro...
Local features have proven very useful for recognition.
Manifold learning has proven to be a very powerful tool in
data analysis. However, manifold learning application for
imag...
When constructing a Bayesian network, it can be advantageous to employ structural learning algorithms to combine knowledge captured in databases with prior information provided by...
