The paper describes a method for automatically extracting informative feature hierarchies for object classification, and shows the advantage of the features constructed hierarchic...
Bottom-up segmentation based only on low-level cues is a notoriously difficult problem. This difficulty has lead to recent top-down segmentation algorithms that are based on class-...
Abstract. Detecting contour closure, i.e., finding a cycle of disconnected contour fragments that separates an object from its background, is an important problem in perceptual gro...
The statistics of range images from natural environments is a largely unexplored eld of research. It closely relates to the statistical modeling of the scene geometry in natural e...
