We introduce a method that can register challenging images from specular and poorly textured 3D environments, on which previous approaches fail. We assume that a small set of reference images of the environment and a partial 3D model are available. Like pr ...
Feature description for local image patch is widely used in computer vision. While the conventional way to design local descriptor is based on expert experience and knowledge, learning based methods for designing local descriptor become more and more popul ...

The analysis of collections of visual data, e.g., their classification, modeling and clustering, has become a problem of high importance in a variety of applications. Meanwhile, image data captured in uncontrolled environments by arbitrary users is very li ...
Finding relations between image semantics and image characteristics is a problem of long standing in computer vision and related fields. Despite persistent efforts and significant advances in the field, today’s computers are still strikingly unable to achi ...
In this work a new method for automatic image classification is proposed. It relies on a compact representation of images using sets of sparse binary features. This work first evaluates the Fast Retina Keypoint binary descriptor and proposes imp ...
The technological evolution of optical sensors over the last few decades has provided remote sensing analysts with rich spatial, spectral, and temporal information. In particular, the increase in spectral resolution of hyperspectral images (HSIs) and infra ...

This paper presents an upper-body detection algorithm that extends classical shape-based detectors through the use of additional semantic colour segmentation cues. More precisely, candidate upper-body image patches produced by a base detector are soft-segm ...
This paper presents a method for the automated detection of dropped objects in surveillance scenarios, which is a very important task for abandoned object detection. Our method works in single views and exploits prior information of the scene, such as geom ...
Our research addresses the need for an efficient, effective, and interactive access to large-scale image collections. Image retrieval needs are evolving beyond the capabilities of the traditional indexing based on manual annotation, and the most desirable ...
In this paper we consider the problem of clipped-pixel recovery over an entire badly exposed image region, using two correctly exposed images of the scene that may be captured under different conditions. The first reference image is used to recover texture ...
