Interactive or semi-automatic segmentation is a useful alternative to pure automatic segmentation in many applications. While automatic segmentation can be very challenging, a sma...
State-of-the-art stereo vision algorithms utilize color changes as important cues for object boundaries. Most methods impose heuristic restrictions or priors on disparities, for e...
This paper describes a method for finding wide-baseline correspondences between images at locations along gradient edges. We find edges in scale space using established methods an...
Most recent class-level object recognition systems work with visual words, i.e., vector quantized local descriptors. In this paper we examine the feasibility of a dataindependent ...
We propose using the proximity distribution of vectorquantized local feature descriptors for object and category recognition. To this end, we introduce a novel "proximity dis...
