Pose estimation involves reconstructing the configuration of a moving body from images sequences. In this paper we present a general framework for pose estimation of unknown obje...
Abstract. Terrorist events such as suicide bombings are rare yet extremely destructive events. Responses to such events are even rarer, because they require forecasting methods for...
This paper addresses the issue of devising a new document prior for the language modeling (LM) approach for Information Retrieval. The prior is based on term statistics, derived in...
We propose an adaptive figure-ground classification algorithm to automatically extract a foreground region using a user-provided bounding-box. The image is first over-segmented wi...
We present metrics to evaluate the performance of video object segmentation and tracking methods quantitatively when groundtruth segmentation maps are not available. The proposed ...
