We propose a novel way to induce a random field from an energy function on discrete labels. It amounts to locally injecting noise to the energy potentials, followed by finding t...
Most of the available research on face recognition has been performed using gray scale imagery. This paper presents a novel two-pass face recognition system that uses a Multispect...
This work presents a novel approach to object localization in complex imagery. In particular, the spatial extents of objects characterized by distinct spatial signatures at multip...
This paper proposes a computational system of object categorization based on decomposition and adaptive fusion of visual information. A coupled Conditional Random Field is develop...
This paper presents a statistical model for textures that uses a non-negative decomposition on a set of local atoms learned from an exemplar. This model is described by the varianc...
