Viewpoint invariant pedestrian recognition is an important yet under-addressed problem in computer vision. This is likely due to the difficulty in matching two objects with unknown...
Saliency detection is a well researched problem in computer vision. In previous work, most of the effort is spent on manually devising a saliency measure. Instead we propose a sim...
We pose the recognition problem as data association. In this setting, a novel object is explained solely in terms of a small set of exemplar objects to which it is visually simila...
In this paper we consider the detection of small surface features, such as ridges and bumps, on the surface of an object during dextrous manipulation. First we review the represen...
A new feature descriptor is presented for object and scene recognition. The new approach, called CDIKP, uniquely combines the scale-invariant feature detection with a robust proje...
