Current vision systems are designed to perform in clear weather. Needless to say, in any outdoor application, there is no escape from "bad" weather. Ultimately, computer...
Various problems in Computer Vision become difficult due to a strong influence of lighting on the images of an object. Recent work showed analytically that the set of all images of...
This paper proposes a robust estimation and validation framework for characterizing local structures in a positive multi-variate continuous function approximated by a Gaussian-base...
The paper is concerned with learning to rank, which is to construct a model or a function for ranking objects. Learning to rank is useful for document retrieval, collaborative fil...
