Real-time estimation of a camera’s pose relative to an object is still an open problem. The difficulty stems from the need for fast and robust detection of known objects in the s...
The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes rough texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. Such a function consists of thousands of ...
An image search for “clownfish” yields many photos of clownfish, each of a different individual of a different 3D shape in a different pose. Yet, to the human observer, this...
Contemporary face recognition algorithms rely on precise
localization of keypoints (corner of eye, nose etc.). Unfortunately,
finding keypoints reliably and accurately remains
a...
Abstract. This contribution proposes a compositional approach to visual object categorization of scenes. Compositions are learned from the Caltech 101 database1 intermediate abstra...
