Estimating the illumination and the reflectance properties
of an object surface from a sparse set of images is an
important but inherently ill-posed problem. The problem
becomes...

We introduce a new technique that can reduce any
higher-order Markov random field with binary labels into
a first-order one that has the same minima as the original.
Moreover, w...
In this paper, we address two closely related visual tracking problems: 1) localizing a target's position in low or moderate resolution videos and 2) segmenting a target'...
This paper presents a new approach to discriminative modeling for classi cation and labeling. Our method, called Boosting on Multilevel Aggregates (BMA), adds a new class of hiera...
Belief Propagation (BP) can be very useful and efficient for performing approximate inference on graphs. But when the graph is very highly connected with strong conflicting intera...
