Anomaly detection usually assumes that abnormality is an intrinsic property of an observation. A defect is a defect, and a rare object is rare, regardless of where it appears. Many real-world anomalies do not work this way. A runner on a…
Tracking-by-detection approaches are some of the most successful object trackers in recent years. Their success is largely determined by the detector model they learn initially and then update over time. However, under challenging…
People who are blind perceive the world differently than those who are sighted, which can result in distinct motion characteristics. For instance, when crossing at an intersection, blind individuals may have different patterns of movement,…
The robust association of the same objects across video frames in complex scenes is crucial for many applications, especially Multiple Object Tracking (MOT). Current methods predominantly rely on labeled domain-specific video datasets,…
In the recent past, binary similarity measures have been applied in solving biometric identification problems, including fingerprint, handwritten character detection, and in iris image recognition. The application of the relevant…
Gait, an unobtrusive biometric, is valued for its capability to identify individuals at a distance, across external outfits and environmental conditions. This study challenges the prevailing assumption that vision-based gait recognition, in…
The design of a globally convergent position observer for feature points from visual information is a challenging problem, especially for the case with only inertial measurements and without assumptions of uniform observability, which…
Gait recognition refers to the identification of individuals based on features acquired from their body movement during walking. Despite the recent advances in gait recognition with deep learning, variations in data acquisition and…
Sliding window approaches have been widely used for object recognition tasks in recent years. They guarantee an investigation of the entire input image for the object to be detected and allow a localization of that object. Despite the…
Object detection is a fundamental task in computer vision and has many applications in image processing. This paper proposes a new approach for object detection by applying scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) in an automatic…
Due to implicitly introduced periodic shifting of limited searching area, visual object tracking using correlation filters often has to confront undesired boundary effect. As boundary effect severely degrade the quality of object model, it…
One of the fundamental properties of a salient object region is its contrast with the immediate context. The problem is that numerous object regions exist which potentially can all be salient. One way to prevent an exhaustive search over…
We present VISAT, a novel open dataset and benchmarking suite for evaluating model robustness in the task of traffic sign recognition with the presence of visual attributes. Built upon the Mapillary Traffic Sign Dataset (MTSD), our dataset…
Standardized benchmarks have been crucial in pushing the performance of computer vision algorithms, especially since the advent of deep learning. Although leaderboards should not be over-claimed, they often provide the most objective…
In this paper, we propose a novel concept of path consistency to learn robust object matching without using manual object identity supervision. Our key idea is that, to track a object through frames, we can obtain multiple different…
Learning a discriminative model that distinguishes the specified target from surrounding distractors across frames is essential for generic object tracking (GOT). Dynamic adaptation of target representation against distractors remains…
Due to the rapid development of computer vision, single-modal (RGB) object tracking has made significant progress in recent years. Considering the limitation of single imaging sensor, multi-modal images (RGB, Infrared, etc.) are introduced…
Binary logit (BNL) and multinomial logit (MNL) models are the two most widely used discrete choice models for travel behavior modeling and prediction. However, in many scenarios, the collected data for those models are subject to…
We propose a new approach to measure differential radial velocities, mainly for single-lined spectroscopic binaries. The proposed procedure - TIRAVEL (Template Independent RAdial VELocities) - does not rely on a prior theoretical or…
Gait recognition aims to identify a person based on their walking sequences, serving as a useful biometric modality as it can be observed from long distances without requiring cooperation from the subject. In representing a person's walking…
