Efficient Learning of Relational Object Class Models

Flexible syntactic matching of curves and its application to automatic hierarchical classification of silhouettes

Curve matching is one instance of the fundamental correspondence problem. Our flexible algorithm is designed to match curves under substantial deformations and arbitrary large s...

Learning distance functions using equivalence relations

We address the problem of learning distance metrics using side-information in the form of groups of "similar" points. We propose to use the RCA algorithm, whic...

Self-organization in vision: stochastic clustering for image segmentation, perceptual grouping, and image database organization

We present a stochastic clustering algorithm which uses pairwise similarity of elements and show how it can be used to address various problems in computer vision, including the...
