We present a new approach, called local discriminant embedding (LDE), to manifold learning and pattern classification. In our framework, the neighbor and class relations of data a...
Human hair is a very complex visual pattern whose representation is rarely studied in the vision literature despite its important role in human recognition. In this paper, we prop...
During the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) landings, the Descent Image Motion Estimation System (DIMES) was used for horizontal velocity estimation. The DIMES algorithm combines mea...
Recently, "epitomes" were introduced as patch-based probability models that are learned by compiling together a large number of examples of patches from input images. In...
We present a method for training a similarity metric from data. The method can be used for recognition or verification applications where the number of categories is very large an...
