Rotation Invariant Object Recognition from One Training Example
(2004-04-27)
Local descriptors are increasingly used for the task of object recognition because of their perceived robustness with respect to occlusions and to global geometrical deformations. Such a descriptor--based on a set of ...
Model-Based Matching of Line Drawings by Linear Combinations of Prototypes
(1996-01-18)
We describe a technique for finding pixelwise correspondences between two images by using models of objects of the same class to guide the search. The object models are 'learned' from example images (also called ...
Direction Estimation of Pedestrian from Images
(2003-08-27)
The capability of estimating the walking direction of people would be useful in many applications such as those involving autonomous cars and robots.We introduce an approach for estimating the walking direction of people ...
Predictive identification of alternative events conserved in human and mouse
(2004-09-30)
Alternative pre-messenger RNA splicing affects a majority of human genes and plays important roles in development and disease. Alternative splicing (AS) events conserved since the divergence of human and mouse are likely ...
A general mechanism for tuning: Gain control circuits and synapses underlie tuning of cortical neurons
(2004-12-31)
Tuning to an optimal stimulus is a widespread property of neurons in cortex. We propose that such tuning is a consequence of normalization or gain control circuits. We also present a biologically plausible neural circuitry ...
A new biologically motivated framework for robust object recognition
(2004-11-14)
In this paper, we introduce a novel set of features for robust object recognition, which exhibits outstanding performances on a variety ofobject categories while being capable of learning from only a fewtraining examples. ...
A Trainable Object Detection System: Car Detection in Static Images
(1999-10-13)
This paper describes a general, trainable architecture for object detection that has previously been applied to face and peoplesdetection with a new application to car detection in static images. Our technique is a ...
Information Dissemination and Aggregation in Asset Markets with Simple Intelligent Traders
(1998-09-01)
Various studies of asset markets have shown that traders are capable of learning and transmitting information through prices in many situations. In this paper we replace human traders with intelligent software agents ...
Biologically Plausible Neural Model for the Recognition of Biological Motion and Actions
(2002-08-01)
The visual recognition of complex movements and actions is crucial for communication and survival in many species. Remarkable sensitivity and robustness of biological motion perception have been demonstrated in ...
Perceptual Evaluation of Video-Realistic Speech
(2003-02-28)
abstract With many visual speech animation techniques now available, there is a clear need for systematic perceptual evaluation schemes. We describe here our scheme and its application to a new video-realistic ...
