Color descriptors are one of the important features used in content-based image retrieval. The Dominant Color Descriptor (DCD) represents a few perceptually dominant colors in an image through color quantization. For image retrieval based…

Photorealistic reconstruction of street scenes is essential for developing real-world simulators in autonomous driving. While recent methods based on 3D/4D Gaussian Splatting (GS) have demonstrated promising results, they still encounter…

In this paper, we consider the following query problem: given two weighted point sets $A$ and $B$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, we want to quickly determine that whether their earth mover's distance (EMD) is larger or smaller than…

Sparse representation is a viable solution to visual tracking. In this paper, we propose a structured multi-task multi-view tracking (SMTMVT) method, which exploits the sparse appearance model in the particle filter framework to track…

This paper presents a novel extended dynamic programming approach for energy minimization (EDP) to solve the correspondence problem for stereo and motion. A significant speedup is achieved using a recursive minimum search strategy (RMS).…

This dissertation advances the state of the art for AR/VR tracking systems by increasing the tracking frequency by orders of magnitude and proposes an efficient algorithm for the problem of edge-aware optimization. AR/VR is a natural way of…

Collaborative filtering, a widely-used recommendation technique, predicts a user's preference by aggregating the ratings from similar users. As a result, these measures cannot fully utilize the rating information and are not suitable for…

The tracking method based on the extreme learning machine (ELM) is efficient and effective. ELM randomly generates input weights and biases in the hidden layer, and then calculates and computes the output weights by reducing the iterative…

Deep learning (DL) based semantic segmentation methods have achieved excellent performance in biomedical image segmentation, producing high quality probability maps to allow extraction of rich instance information to facilitate good…

The Energy Mover's Distance (EMD) has seen use in collider physics as a metric between events and as a geometric method of defining infrared and collinear safe observables. Recently, the Spectral Energy Mover's Distance (SEMD) has been…

Visual tracking fundamentally involves regressing the state of the target in each frame of a video. Despite significant progress, existing regression-based trackers still tend to experience failures and inaccuracies. To enhance the…

The earth mover's distance (EMD) is a well-known metric on spaces of histograms; roughly speaking, the EMD measures the minimum amount of work required to equalize two histograms. The EMD has a natural generalization that compares an…

Dictionary plays an important role in multi-instance data representation. It maps bags of instances to histograms. Earth mover's distance (EMD) is the most effective histogram distance metric for the application of multi-instance retrieval.…

This paper presents an intra coding tool, named Merge mode for Template-based Intra Mode Derivation (TIMD). TIMD-Merge has been adopted in the 15\textsuperscript{th} version of the Enhanced Compression Model (ECM) software that explores…

One of the major challenges of model-free visual tracking problem has been the difficulty originating from the unpredictable and drastic changes in the appearance of objects we target to track. Existing methods tackle this problem by…

Spatially-varying intensity noise is a common source of distortion in medical images. Bias field noise is one example of such a distortion that is often present in the magnetic resonance (MR) images or other modalities such as retina…

The Word Movers Distance (WMD) measures the semantic dissimilarity between two text documents by computing the cost of optimally moving all words of a source/query document to the most similar words of a target document. Computing WMD…

Direct detector device (DDD) cameras have revolutionized single particle electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM). In addition to an improved camera detective quantum efficiency, acquisition of DDD movies allows for correction of movement of the…

The Wasserstein metric or earth mover's distance (EMD) is a useful tool in statistics, machine learning and computer science with many applications to biological or medical imaging, among others. Especially in the light of increasingly…

The problem of robust extraction of visual odometry from a sequence of images obtained by an eye in hand camera configuration is addressed. A novel approach toward solving planar template based tracking is proposed which performs a…
