This contribution addresses the problem of obtaining photorealistic 3D models of a scene from images alone with a structure-from-motion approach. The 3D scene is observed from mul...
We present an active learning framework to simultaneously learn appearance and contextual models for scene understanding tasks (multi-class classification). Existing multi-class a...
We present a comprehensive treatment of 3D object tracking by posing it as a nonlinear state estimation problem. The measurements are derived using the outputs of shape-encoded fi...
The hierarchical generalized Voronoi graph (HGVG) is a new roadmap developed for sensor-based exploration in unknown environments. This paper defines the HGVG structure: a robot c...
We present an approach to key frame extraction for structuring user generated videos on video sharing websites (e. g. YouTube). Our approach is intended to link existing image sea...
