Abstract. Training and evaluation of techniques for handwriting recognition and retrieval is a challenge given that it is difficult to create large ground-truthed datasets. This is...
Abstract. Figure/ground assignment is a key step in perceptual organization which assigns contours to one of the two abutting regions, providing information about occlusion and all...
We propose a novel Active Volume Model (AVM) which deforms in a free-form manner to minimize energy. Unlike Snakes and level-set active contours which only consider curves or surfa...
We describe a new face detection algorithm based on a hierarchy of support vector classifiers (SVMs) designed for efficient computation. The hierarchy serves as a platform for a c...
Our objective is to obtain a state-of-the art object category
detector by employing a state-of-the-art image classifier
to search for the object in all possible image subwindows....
