Neural Network Exploration Using Optimal Experiment Design
(1994-06-01)
We consider the question "How should one act when the only goal is to learn as much as possible?" Building on the theoretical results of Fedorov [1972] and MacKay [1992], we apply techniques from Optimal Experiment ...
Object Recognition By Alignment Using Invariant Projections of Planar Surfaces
(1994-02-01)
In order to recognize an object in an image, we must determine the best transformation from object model to the image. In this paper, we show that for features from coplanar surfaces which undergo linear transformations ...
Relative Affine Structure: Canonical Model for 3D from 2D Geometry and Applications
(1994-06-01)
We propose an affine framework for perspective views, captured by a single extremely simple equation based on a viewer-centered invariant we call "relative affine structure". Via a number of corollaries of our main ...
Partial Evaluation for Scientific Computing: The Supercomputer Toolkit Experience
(1994-05-01)
We describe the key role played by partial evaluation in the Supercomputer Toolkit, a parallel computing system for scientific applications that effectively exploits the vast amount of parallelism exposed by partial ...
Viewer-Centered Object Recognition in Monkeys
(1994-04-01)
How does the brain recognize three-dimensional objects? We trained monkeys to recognize computer rendered objects presented from an arbitrarily chosen training view, and subsequently tested their ability to generalize ...
View-Based Models of 3D Object Recognition and Class-Specific Invariances
(1994-04-01)
This paper describes the main features of a view-based model of object recognition. The model tries to capture general properties to be expected in a biological architecture for object recognition. The basic module is a ...
Piecemeal Learning of an Unknown Environment
(1994-03-01)
We introduce a new learning problem: learning a graph by piecemeal search, in which the learner must return every so often to its starting point (for refueling, say). We present two linear-time piecemeal-search ...
Spatial Reference Frames for Object Recognition: Tuning for Rotations in Depth
(1995-03-01)
The inferior temporal cortex (IT) of monkeys is thought to play an essential role in visual object recognition. Inferotemporal neurons are known to respond to complex visual stimuli, including patterns like faces, ...
Towards an Example-Based Image Compression Architecture for Video-Conferencing
(1994-06-01)
This paper consists of two major parts. First, we present the outline of a simple approach to very-low bandwidth video-conferencing system relying on an example-based hierarchical image compression scheme. In particular, ...
Linear Object Classes and Image Synthesis from a Single Example Image
(1995-03-01)
The need to generate new views of a 3D object from a single real image arises in several fields, including graphics and object recognition. While the traditional approach relies on the use of 3D models, we have recently ...
