This work attempts to considerably reduce the amount of user effort in the natural image matting problem. The key observation is that the nonlocal principle, introduced to denoise...
We present a novel algorithm, Compact Kd-Trees (CompactKdt), that achieves state-of-the-art performance in searching large scale object image collections. The algorithm uses an or...
In this paper, we propose a bilevel sparse coding model for coupled feature spaces, where we aim to learn dictionaries for sparse modeling in both spaces while enforcing some desi...
There are more and more applications of nonphotorealistic rendered images, sketches and drawings. Several techniques for generating such imagery are widely known. The stochastic p...
In this paper the sparse coding principle is employed for the representation of multimodal image data, i.e. image intensity and range. We estimate an image basis for frontal face i...
