We propose a novel framework for contour based object
detection and recognition, which we formulate as a joint
contour fragment grouping and labeling problem. For a
given set of...

Noble forces in image segmentation based on active contours models are proposed for capturing objects in the image. Contemplating the common functionality of forces in previous ac...
Finding contours in constrained search space is a well known problem. It is encountered in such areas as tracking objects in videos, or finding objects within defined boundaries....
Object recognition has reached a level where we can identify a large number of previously seen and known objects. However, the more challenging and important task of categorizing ...
In this paper, we propose techniques to make use of two complementary bottom-up features, image edges and texture patches, to guide top-down object segmentation towards higher pre...
