Many-to-one Contour Matching for Describing and Discriminating Object Shape
We present an object recognition system that locates an object, identifies its parts, and segments out its contours. A key distinction of our approach is that we use long, salien...

Combinatorial Preconditioners and Multilevel Solvers for Problems in Computer Vision and Image Processing
Abstract. Linear systems and eigen-calculations on symmetric diagonally dominant matrices (SDDs) occur ubiquitously in computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning. In ...

Object Detection via Boundary Structure Segmentation
We address the problem of object detection and segmentation using holistic properties of object shape. Global shape representations are highly susceptible to clutter inevitably pr...

Approximate Parameter Learning in Conditional Random Fields: An Empirical Investigation
We investigate maximum likelihood parameter learning in Conditional Random Fields (CRF) and present an empirical study of pseudo-likelihood (PL) based approximations of the paramet...

What Cannot be Learned with Bethe Approximations
We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
