چکیده

This paper presents a method for the recognition of object class once parts have been detected. The recognition task is formulated as a graph search problem in which the optimal score function is derived from Bayesian maximum a posteriori estimation. An efficient graph search algorithm is used to find the optimal solution. The method differs from previous approaches, such as one proposed by Burl and Perona [3], in that the optimal score function is derived in a generative manner. As a result, the score function suggests a powerful connection to the problems of part selection, detection and threshold setting for part detectors.

Unsupervised Learning of Models for Recognition

We present a method to learn object class models from unlabeled and unsegmented cluttered scenes for the purpose of visual object recognition. We focus on a particular type of model where objects are represented as flexible constellations of rigid parts (features). The variability within a class is represented by a joint probability density function (pdf) on the shape of the constellation and t...

Alexandra Teynor Visual Object Class Recognition using Local Descriptions

This work is concerned with the recognition of visual object class members in digital images. The fundamental principle of all methods employed in this work is the use of local, visual features extracted from the images. There are two emphases: the first half of the work deals with the identification and the representation of the local object parts, the second half analyzes and proposes methods...

Back to the Future: Learning Shape Models from 3D CAD Data

In the 70’s an 80’s the predominant approach to recognition was based on 3D representations of object classes [2, 6, 7, 8, 9]. While being based on an intriguing paradigm, these approaches showed only limited success when applied to real-world images. This was due to both the difficulty to robustly extract 2D image features and the inherent ambiguity when matching them to 3D models. Today, the ...
