Cross-view image geolocalization provides an estimate of an agent's global position by matching a local ground image to an overhead satellite image without the need for GPS. It is challenging to reliably match a ground image to the correct…
Psychophysical studies suggest that face recognition takes place in a narrow band of low spatial frequencies (``critical band''). Here, we examined the recognition performance of an artificial face recognition system as a function of the…
This paper proposes a new approach for face verification, where a pair of images needs to be classified as belonging to the same person or not. This problem is relatively new and not well-explored in the literature. Current methods mostly…
In the realm of digital music, using tags to efficiently organize and retrieve music from extensive databases is crucial for music catalog owners. Human tagging by experts is labor-intensive but mostly accurate, whereas automatic tagging…
Most of the existing approaches for person re-identification consider a static setting where the number of cameras in the network is fixed. An interesting direction, which has received little attention, is to explore the dynamic nature of a…
Automatic annotation of images with descriptive words is a challenging problem with vast applications in the areas of image search and retrieval. This problem can be viewed as a label-assignment problem by a classifier dealing with a very…
Cameras rely on auto white balance (AWB) to correct undesirable color casts caused by scene illumination and the camera's spectral sensitivity. This is typically achieved using an illuminant estimator that determines the global color cast…
A concept of defining images based on its own approximate ones is proposed here, which is called 'Self-ception'. In this regard, an algorithm is proposed to implement the self-ception for images, which we call it 'Image Self-ception' since…
Numerous activities in our daily life, including transactions, access to services and transportation, require us to verify who we are by showing our ID documents containing face images, e.g. passports and driver licenses. An automatic…
There is a research field of human activity recognition that automatically recognizes a user's physical activity through sensing technology incorporated in smartphones and other devices. When sensing daily activity, various measurement…
It is estimated that 80% of crashes and 65% of near collisions involved drivers inattentive to traffic for three seconds before the event. This paper develops an algorithm for extracting characteristics allowing the cell phones…
Compared to other biometrics, gait is difficult to conceal and has the advantage of being unobtrusive. Inertial sensors, such as accelerometers and gyroscopes, are often used to capture gait dynamics. These inertial sensors are commonly…
The style of an image plays a significant role in how it is viewed, but style has received little attention in computer vision research. We describe an approach to predicting style of images, and perform a thorough evaluation of different…
This paper proposes Group-In, a wireless scanning system to detect static or mobile people groups in indoor or outdoor environments. Group-In collects only wireless traces from the Bluetooth-enabled mobile devices for group inference. The…
We propose a novel crowd counting approach that leverages abundantly available unlabeled crowd imagery in a learning-to-rank framework. To induce a ranking of cropped images , we use the observation that any sub-image of a crowded scene…
Understanding humans from photographs has always been a fundamental goal of computer vision. In this thesis we have developed a hierarchy of tools that cover a wide range of topics with the objective of understanding humans from monocular…
AI-generated imagery has reached near-photorealistic fidelity, yet this technology poses significant threats to information security and societal trust. Existing deepfake detection methods often exhibit limited robustness in open-world…
The problem of tag completion is to learn the missing tags of an image. In this paper, we propose to learn a tag scoring vector for each image by local linear learning. A local linear function is used in the neighborhood of each image to…
Machine learning algorithms, in conjunction with user data, hold the promise of revolutionizing the way we interact with our phones, and indeed their widespread adoption in the design of apps bear testimony to this promise. However,…
Now many mobile phones embed deep-learning models for evaluation or guidance on photography. These models cannot provide detailed results like human pose scores or scene color scores because of the rare of corresponding aesthetic attribute…
