We present a novel method for the discovery and detection of visual object categories based on decompositions using topic models. The approach is capable of learning a compact and...
Illumination changes cause object appearance to change drastically and many existing tracking algorithms lack the capability to handle this problem. The Earth Mover's Distanc...
We extend the successful 2D robust feature concept into the third dimension in that we produce a descriptor for a reconstructed 3D surface region. The descriptor is perspectively ...
We present an algorithm for edge detection suitable for both natural as well as noisy images. Our method is based on efficient multiscale utilization of elongated filters measurin...
So far global optimization techniques have been developed independently for the tasks of shape matching and image segmentation. In this paper we show that both tasks can in fact b...
