We propose a novel approach to improve the distinctiveness of local image features without significantly affecting their robustness with respect to image deformations. Local image...
Contrary to popular belief, despite decades of research in fingerprints, reliable fingerprint recognition is an open problem. Extracting features out of poor quality prints is t...

We consider object recognition as the process of attaching meaningful labels to specific regions of an image, and propose a model that learns spatial relationships between objects....
We present an efficient and robust method of locating a set of feature points in an object of interest. From a training set we construct a joint model of the appearance of each fe...
In this paper we propose an approach for action recognition based on a vocabulary forest of local motionappearance features. Large numbers of features with associated motion vecto...
