Nonparametric Belief Propagation and Facial Appearance Estimation
(2002-12-01)
In many applications of graphical models arising in computer vision, the hidden variables of interest are most naturally specified by continuous, non-Gaussian distributions. There exist inference algorithms for discrete ...
Rotation Invariant Real-time Face Detection and Recognition System
(2001-05-31)
In this report, a face recognition system that is capable of detecting and recognizing frontal and rotated faces was developed. Two face recognition methods focusing on the aspect of pose invariance are presented and ...
On the difficulty of feature-based attentional modulations in visual object recognition: A modeling study.
(2004-01-14)
Numerous psychophysical experiments have shown an important role for attentional modulations in vision. Behaviorally, allocation of attention can improve performance in object detection and recognition tasks. At the neural ...

Complex Feature Recognition: A Bayesian Approach for Learning to Recognize Objects
(1996-11-01)
We have developed a new Bayesian framework for visual object recognition which is based on the insight that images of objects can be modeled as a conjunction of local features. This framework can be used to both derive ...
Specialization of Perceptual Processes
(1995-04-22)
In this report, I discuss the use of vision to support concrete, everyday activity. I will argue that a variety of interesting tasks can be solved using simple and inexpensive vision systems. I will provide a number ...
Surface Reflectance Recognition and Real-World Illumination Statistics
(2002-10-01)
Humans distinguish materials such as metal, plastic, and paper effortlessly at a glance. Traditional computer vision systems cannot solve this problem at all. Recognizing surface reflectance properties from a single ...
