Semi-supervised boosting using visual similarity learning
The required amount of labeled training data for object detection and classification is a major drawback of current methods. Combining labeled and unlabeled data via semisupervise...

A polynomial-time bound for matching and registration with outliers
We present a framework for computing optimal transformations, aligning one point set to another, in the presence of outliers. Example applications include shape matching and regis...

(BP)2: Beyond pairwise Belief Propagation labeling by approximating Kikuchi free energies
Belief Propagation (BP) can be very useful and efficient for performing approximate inference on graphs. But when the graph is very highly connected with strong conflicting intera...

Scene classification with low-dimensional semantic spaces and weak supervision
A novel approach to scene categorization is proposed. Similar to previous works of [11, 15, 3, 12], we introduce an intermediate space, based on a low dimensional semantic "t...

Coherent image annotation by learning semantic distance
Conventional approaches to automatic image annotation usually suffer from two problems: (1) They cannot guarantee a good semantic coherence of the annotated words for each image, ...

Structure-perceptron learning of a hierarchical log-linear model
In this paper, we address the problems of deformable object matching (alignment) and segmentation with cluttered background. We propose a novel hierarchical log-linear model (HLLM...

Kernel-based learning of cast shadows from a physical model of light sources and surfaces for low-level segmentation
In background subtraction, cast shadows induce silhouette distortions and object fusions hindering performance of high level algorithms in scene monitoring. We introduce a nonpara...

Robust estimation of gaussian mixtures from noisy input data
We propose a variational bayes approach to the problem of robust estimation of gaussian mixtures from noisy input data. The proposed algorithm explicitly takes into account the un...

Real-time pose estimation of articulated objects using low-level motion
We present a method that is capable of tracking and estimating pose of articulated objects in real-time. This is achieved by using a bottom-up approach to detect instances of the ...
