Real-time camera pose estimation for sports fields

Pascal Fua, Charles Dubout, Leonardo Citraro, Horesh Beny Ben Shitrit, Stefano Savarè, Pablo Marquez Neila

Given an image sequence featuring a portion of a sports field filmed by a moving and uncalibrated camera, such as the one of the smartphones, our goal is to compute automatically in real time the focal length and extrinsic camera parameters for each image ...

Adaptive Sampling for Large Scale Boosting

François Fleuret, Charles Dubout

Classical Boosting algorithms, such as AdaBoost, build a strong classifier without concern for the computational cost. Some applications, in particular in computer vision, may involve millions of training examples and very large feature spaces. In such con ...

Object Classification and Detection in High Dimensional Feature Space

Charles Dubout

Object classification and detection aim at recognizing and localizing objects in real-world images. They are fundamental computer vision problems and a prerequisite for full scene understanding. Their difficulty lies in the large number of possible object ...

Comparing machines and humans on a visual categorization test

François Fleuret, Charles Dubout, Ting Li

Automated scene interpretation has benefited from advances in machine learning, and restricted tasks, such as face detection, have been solved with sufficient accuracy for restricted settings. However, the performance of machines in providing rich semantic ...

Face Image Enhancement Using 3D and Spectral Information

Sabine Süsstrunk, Charles Dubout

This paper presents a novel method of enhancing image quality of face pictures using 3D and spectral information. Most conventional techniques directly work on the image data, shifting the skin color to a predefined skin tone, and so do not take into accou ...
