Local feature approaches to vision geometry and object recognition are based on selecting and matching sparse sets of visually salient image points, known as `keypoints' or `p...
We describe a new region descriptor and apply it to two problems, object detection and texture classification. The covariance of d-features, e.g., the three-dimensional color vecto...
We achieve two goals in this paper: (1) to build a novel appearance-based object representation that takes into account variations in contrast often found in training images; (2) ...

The general approach for automatically driving data collection using information from previously acquired data is called active learning. Traditional active learning addresses the...
This paper presents a fast method for detecting multi-view cars in real-world scenes. Cars are artificial objects with various appearance changes, but they have relatively consist...
