Statistical approaches for building non-rigid deformable
models, such as the Active Appearance Model (AAM), have
enjoyed great popularity in recent years, but typically require
...

The Conditional Random Fields (CRF) model, using
patch-based classification bound with context information,
has recently been widely adopted for image segmentation/
labeling. In...
A variety of flexible models have been proposed to detect
objects in challenging real world scenes. Motivated
by some of the most successful techniques, we propose a
hierarchica...

This paper presents a nonparametric approach to labeling
of local image regions that is inspired by recent developments
in information-theoretic denoising. The chief novelty
of ...
We introduce a new technique that can reduce any
higher-order Markov random field with binary labels into
a first-order one that has the same minima as the original.
Moreover, w...
