—Researchers in robotics and artificial intelligence have often looked at biology as a source of inspiration for solving their problems. From the opposite perspective, neuroscie...
Reseachers have verified that clothing provides information about the identity of the individual. To extract features from the clothing, the clothing region first must be localize...
Tree-structured probabilistic models admit simple, fast inference. However, they are not well suited to phenomena such as occlusion, where multiple components of an object may dis...
We show how to use a sampling method to find sparsely clad people in static images. People are modeled as an assembly of nine cylindrical segments. Segments are found using an EM ...
We present a new Gaussian Process inference algorithm, called Online Sparse Matrix Gaussian Processes (OSMGP), and demonstrate its merits with a few vision applications. The OSMGP ...
