Existing visual tracking methods are challenged by object and background appearance variations, which often occur in a long duration tracking. In this paper, we propose a combined ...
We present a distributed representation of pose and appearance of people called the “poselet activation vector”. First we show that this representation can be used to estimate...
Estimating the atmospheric or meteorological visibility distance is very important for air and ground transport safety, as well as for air quality. However, there is no holistic ap...
Many state-of-the-art face recognition algorithms use image descriptors based on features known as Local Binary Patterns (LBPs). While many variations of LBP exist, so far none of ...
We propose a novel variational formulation for generating 3D models of objects from a single view. Based on a few user scribbles in an image, the algorithm automatically extracts t...
