Histograms of orientations and the statistics derived from them have proven to be effective image representations for various recognition tasks. In this work we attempt to improve...
We introduce an exemplar model that can learn and generate a region of interest around class instances in a training set, given only a set of images containing the visual class. T...
In this paper, we address the problem of detecting pedestrians in still images. We introduce an algorithm for learning shapelet features, a set of mid?level features. These featur...
Most of the shape from shading (SFS) algorithms have been developed under the simplifying assumptions of a Lambertian surface, an orthographic projection, and a distant light sour...
This paper introduces a novel colour-based affine covariant region detector. Our algorithm is an extension of the maximally stable extremal region (MSER) to colour. The extension ...
