Multiscale Centerline Extraction Based on Regression and Projection onto the Set of Elongated Structures

Amos Sironi

Automatically extracting linear structures from images is a fundamental low-level vision problem with numerous applications in different domains. Centerline detection and radial estimation are the first crucial steps in most Computer Vision pipelines aimin ...

Word Sequence Modeling using Deep Learning

Joël Yvon Roland Legrand

For a long time, natural language processing (NLP) has relied on generative models with task specific and manually engineered features. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest for neural networks in the machine learning community, obtaining state ...

Template-based Monocular 3-D Shape Reconstruction And Tracking Using Laplacian Meshes

Tien Dat Ngo

This thesis addresses the problem of recovering the 3-D shape of a deformable object in single images, or image sequences acquired by a monocular video camera, given that a 3-D template shape and a template image of the object are available. While being a ...

Do We Need Binary Features for 3D Reconstruction?

Pascal Fua, Xinchao Wang, Zhiye Wang, Bin Fan

Binary features have been incrementally popular in the past few years due to their low memory footprints and the efficient computation of Hamming distance between binary descriptors. They have been shown with promising results on some real time application ...

Efficient Sample Mining for Object Detection

François Fleuret, Olivier Canévet

We propose a novel approach to efficiently select informative samples for large-scale learning. Instead of directly feeding a learning algorithm with a very large amount of samples, as it is usually done to reach state-of-the-art performance, we have devel ...

Robust visual tracking using feature selection

Fabien Willemin

Visual tracking has become a very important component in computer vision, but achieving a robust, reliable and real time tracking remains a real challenge.In order to improve the actual state-of-the-art, we choose to study and improve one of the most perfo ...

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 ...

Removing Shadows from Images Using Color and Near-infrared

Sabine Süsstrunk, Neda Salamati, Arthur Germain

Shadows often introduce errors in the performance of computer vision algorithms, such as object detection and tracking. This paper proposes a method to remove shadows from real images based on a probability shadow map. The probability shadow map identifies ...
