Scene content understanding facilitates a large number of applications, ranging from content-based image retrieval to other multimedia applications. Material detection refers to t...
We present a novel approach for estimating light sources from a single image of a scene that is illuminated by major near point light sources, a few directional light sources and ...
The aim of salient point detection is to find distinctive events in images. Salient features are generally determined from the local differential structure of images. They focus o...
We present a scalable approach to recognizing and describing complex activities in video sequences. We are interested in long-term, sequential activities that may have several par...
Pattern variation is a major factor that affects the performance of recognition systems. In this paper, a novel manifold tangent modeling method called Discriminant Additive Tange...
