In this paper we address the problem of image retrieval from millions of database images. We improve the vocabulary tree based approach by introducing contextual weighting of loca...

In geometric computer vision, the structure from motion (SfM) problem can be formulated as a optimization problem with a rank constraint. It is well known that the trace norm of a...
Aiming at reaching an interactive and simplified usage of high-resolution 3D acquisition systems, this paper presents a fast and automated technique for pre-alignment of dense ra...

In this paper, we present an analytical method for computing the globally optimal estimates of orthogonal vanishing points in a “Manhattan world” with a calibrated camera. We ...
We present a novel and general optimisation framework for visual SLAM, which scales for both local, highly accurate reconstruction and large-scale motion with long loop closures. ...

We present a generic, efficient and iterative algorithm for interactively clustering classes of images and videos. The approach moves away from the use of large hand labelled tra...
Recent work on unsupervised feature learning has shown that learning on polynomial expansions of input patches, such as on pair-wise products of pixel intensities, can improve the...
This paper presents a novel approach to recovering temporally coherent estimates of 3D structure of a dynamic scene from a sequence of binocular stereo images. The approach is bas...
Acquiring dynamic 3D fluid surfaces is a challenging problem in computer vision. Single or stereo camera based solutions are sensitive to refraction distortions, fast fluid moti...
