A common design of an object recognition system has
two steps, a detection step followed by a foreground withinclass
classification step. For example, consider face detection

This paper presents an improvement of the classical Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) approach, for dealing with local representations of image objects. NMF, when applied to...
We consider the problem of estimating the shape and radiance of an object from a calibrated set of views under the assumption that the reflectance of the object is nonLambertian. ...
The aim of this paper is to find the best representation for the appearance of surfaces with Lambertian reflectance under varying illumination. Previous work using principal compo...
Object recognition systems aiming to work in real world settings should use multiple cues in order to achieve robustness. We present a new cue integration scheme which extends the...
