Virtual environment research has focused on interactive image generation and has largely ignored acoustic modeling for spatialization of sound. Yet, realistic auditory cues can co...

This paper presents a new approach to ranking relevant images for retrieval. Distance in the feature space associated with a kernel is used to rank relevant images. An adaptive qu...
We propose a generative model that codes the geometry and appearance of generic visual object categories as a loose hierarchy of parts, with probabilistic spatial relations linkin...
This paper describes an online learning based method to detect flames in video by processing the data generated by an ordinary camera monitoring a scene. Our fire detection method...
The popular bag-of-features representation for object recognition collects signatures of local image patches and discards spatial information. Some have recently attempted to at l...
