Rapid object detection using a boosted cascade of simple features

by Paul Viola, Michael Jones - ACCEPTED CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER VISION AND PATTERN RECOGNITION 2001 , 2001
"... This paper describes a machine learning approach for visual object detection which is capable of processing images extremely rapidly and achieving high detection rates. This work is distinguished by three key contributions. The first is the introduction of a new image representation called the " ..."
Abstract - Cited by 3222 (9 self) - Add to MetaCart
is a method for combining increasingly more complex classifiers in a "cascade" which allows background regions of the image to be quickly discarded while spending more computation on promising object-like regions. The cascade can be viewed as an object specific focus-of-attention mechanism

Robust Real-time Object Detection

by Paul Viola, Michael Jones - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2001
"... This paper describes a visual object detection framework that is capable of processing images extremely rapidly while achieving high detection rates. There are three key contributions. The first is the introduction of a new image representation called the “Integral Image ” which allows the features ..."

background regions of the image to be quickly discarded while spending more computation on promising object-like regions. A set of experiments in the domain of face detection are presented. The system yields face detection performace comparable to the best previous systems [18, 13, 16, 12, 1]. Implemented

A Spatial Logic based on Regions and Connection

by David A. Randell, Zhan Cui, Anthony G. Cohn - PROCEEDINGS 3RD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION AND REASONING , 1992
"... We describe an interval logic for reasoning about space. The logic simplifies an earlier theory developed by Randell and Cohn, and that of Clarke upon which the former was based. The theory supports a simpler ontology, has fewer defined functions and relations, yet does not suffer in terms of its us ..."

We describe an interval logic for reasoning about space. The logic simplifies an earlier theory developed by Randell and Cohn, and that of Clarke upon which the former was based. The theory supports a simpler ontology, has fewer defined functions and relations, yet does not suffer in terms of its useful expressiveness. An axiomatisation of the new theory and a comparison with the two original theories is given.

Region Competition: Unifying Snakes, Region Growing, and Bayes/MDL for Multi-band Image Segmentation

by Song Chun Zhu, Alan Yuille - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 1996
"... We present a novel statistical and variational approach to image segmentation based on a new algorithm named region competition. This algorithm is derived by minimizing a generalized Bayes/MDL criterion using the variational principle. The algorithm is guaranteed to converge to a local minimum and c ..."

Image Inpainting

by Marcelo Bertalmio, Guillermo Sapiro , 2000
"... Inpainting, the technique of modifying an image in an undetectable form, is as ancient as art itself. The goals and applications of inpainting are numerous, from the restoration of damaged paintings and photographs to the removal/replacement of selected objects. In this paper, we introduce a novel a ..."

-in numerous regions containing completely different structures and surrounding backgrounds. In addition, no limitations are imposed on the topology of the region to be inpainted. Applications of this technique include the restoration of old photographs and damaged film; removal of superimposed text like dates

Efficient and Effective Querying by Image Content

by C. Faloutsos, W. Equitz, M. Flickner, W. Niblack, D. Petkovic, R. Barber - Journal of Intelligent Information Systems , 1994
"... In the QBIC (Query By Image Content) project we are studying methods to query large on-line image databases using the images' content as the basis of the queries. Examples of the content we use include color, texture, and shape of image objects and regions. Potential applications include med ..."

Robust object recognition with cortex-like mechanisms

by Thomas Serre, Lior Wolf, Stanley Bileschi, Maximilian Riesenhuber, Tomaso Poggio - IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 2007
"... Abstract—We introduce a new general framework for the recognition of complex visual scenes, which is motivated by biology: We describe a hierarchical system that closely follows the organization of visual cortex and builds an increasingly complex and invariant feature representation by alternating b ..."
Abstract - Cited by 388 (48 self) - Add to MetaCart
between a template matching and a maximum pooling operation. We demonstrate the strength of the approach on a range of recognition tasks: From invariant single object recognition in clutter to multiclass categorization problems and complex scene understanding tasks that rely on the recognition of both

VisualSEEk: a fully automated content-based image query system

by John R. Smith, Shih-fu Chang , 1996
"... 1 We describe a highly functional prototype system for searching by visual features in an image database. The VisualSEEk system is novel in that the user forms the queries by diagramming spatial arrangements of color regions. The system finds the images that contain the most similar arrangements of ..."

Active Contours without Edges

by Tony F. Chan, Luminita A. Vese , 2001
"... In this paper, we propose a new model for active contours to detect objects in a given image, based on techniques of curve evolution, Mumford--Shah functional for segmentation and level sets. Our model can detect objects whose boundaries are not necessarily defined by gradient. We minimize an energy ..."

SIMPLIcity: Semantics-Sensitive Integrated Matching for Picture LIbraries

by James Z. Wang, Jia Li, Gio Wiederhold - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 2001
"... The need for efficient content-based image retrieval has increased tremendously in many application areas such as biomedicine, military, commerce, education, and Web image classification and searching. We present here SIMPLIcity (Semanticssensitive Integrated Matching for Picture LIbraries), an imag ..."

As in other regionbased retrieval systems, an image is represented by a set of regions, roughly corresponding to objects
