In this paper we address two closely related problems. The first is the object detection problem, i.e., the automatic decision of whether a given image represents a known object o...
Abstract We develop a distance metric for clustering and classification algorithms which is invariant to affine transformations and includes priors on the transformation parameters...
— Image matching is a fundamental task of many computer vision problems. In this paper we present a novel approach to match two images in presenting significant geometric deform...
Recent pose invariant methods try to model the subject specific appearance change across pose. For this, however, almost all of the existing methods require a perfect alignment b...
— A major challenge in the path of widespread use of mobile robots is the ability to function autonomously, learning useful features from the environment and using them to adapt ...
