Many works in the recent literature introduce semantic mapping methods that use CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks) to recognize semantic properties in images. The types of properties (eg.: room size, place category, and objects) and their…
Understanding how images influence the world, interpreting which effects their semantics have on various quantities and exploring the reasons behind changes in image-based predictions are highly difficult yet extremely interesting problems.…
The monetary value of a given piece of real estate, a parcel, is often readily available from a geographic information system. However, for many applications, such as insurance and urban planning, it is useful to have estimates of property…
Land-use classification based on spaceborne or aerial remote sensing images has been extensively studied over the past decades. Such classification is usually a patch-wise or pixel-wise labeling over the whole image. But for many…
Estimating 3D human texture from a single image is essential in graphics and vision. It requires learning a mapping function from input images of humans with diverse poses into the parametric (UV) space and reasonably hallucinating…
We motivate and address a human-in-the-loop variant of the monocular viewpoint estimation task in which the location and class of one semantic object keypoint is available at test time. In order to leverage the keypoint information, we…
The task of estimating the spatial layout of cluttered indoor scenes from a single RGB image is addressed in this work. Existing solutions to this problems largely rely on hand-craft features and vanishing lines, and they often fail in…
Objective measures of image quality generally operate by comparing pixels of a "degraded" image to those of the original. Relative to human observers, these measures are overly sensitive to resampling of texture regions (e.g., replacing one…
In the fields of Experimental and Computational Aesthetics, numerous image datasets have been created over the last two decades. In the present work, we provide a comparative overview of twelve image datasets that include aesthetic ratings…
We describe a new method to estimate the geometry of a room given room impulse responses. The method utilises convolutional neural networks to estimate the room geometry and uses the mean square error as the loss function. In contrast to…
The valuation of real estates (e.g., house, land, among others) is of extreme importance for decision making. Their singular characteristics make valuation through hedonic pricing methods dificult since the theory does not specify the…
Visual attributes are great means of describing images or scenes, in a way both humans and computers understand. In order to establish a correspondence between images and to be able to compare the strength of each property between images,…
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) were recently shown to provide state-of-the-art results for object category viewpoint estimation. However different ways of formulating this problem have been proposed and the competing approaches have…
Establishing a sparse set of keypoint correspon dences between images is a fundamental task in many computer vision pipelines. Often, this translates into a computationally expensive nearest neighbor search, where every keypoint descriptor…
This paper presents a simple yet very effective data-driven approach to fuse both low-level and high-level local geometric features for 3D rigid data matching. It is a common practice to generate distinctive geometric descriptors by fusing…
The 3D world limits the human body pose and the human body pose conveys information about the surrounding objects. Indeed, from a single image of a person placed in an indoor scene, we as humans are adept at resolving ambiguities of the…
Accurate prediction of local distortion visibility thresholds is critical in many image and video processing applications. Existing methods require an accurate modeling of the human visual system, and are derived through pshycophysical…
To estimate the volume density and color of a 3D point in the multi-view image-based rendering, a common approach is to inspect the consensus existence among the given source image features, which is one of the informative cues for the…
We propose a method for annotating the location of objects in ImageNet. Traditionally, this is cast as an image window classification problem, where each window is considered independently and scored based on its appearance alone. Instead,…
This paper describes an algorithm for classification of roof materials using aerial photographs. Main advantages of the algorithm are proposed methods to improve prediction accuracy. Proposed methods includes: method of converting ImageNet…
