This paper formulates the problem of object categorization in the discriminant analysis framework focusing on transforming visual feature data so as to make it conform to the comp...
—Many face recognition algorithms use “distance-based” methods: Feature vectors are extracted from each face and distances in feature space are compared to determine matches....

Combinatorial graph cut algorithms have been successfully applied to a wide range of problems in vision and graphics. This paper focusses on possibly the simplest application of gr...
—In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model, active volume model (AVM), for object boundary extraction. It is a dynamic “object” model whose manifestation includes a ...
A sketch captures the most informative part of an object, in a much more concise and potentially robust representation (e.g., for face recognition or new capabilities of manipulat...
