We develop nonparametric Bayesian models for multiscale representations of images depicting natural scene categories. Individual features or wavelet coefficients are marginally de...

This paper tackles an important aspect of the variational problems involving active contours, which has been largely overlooked so far: the optimization by gradient flows. Classic...
This paper introduces a simple and efficient representation for natural images. We partition an image into blocks and treat the blocks as vectors in a high-dimensional space. We t...
Local image features or interest points provide compact ract representations of patterns in an image. In this paper, we propose to extend the notion of spatial interest points int...
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...
