Learning realistic human actions from movies
- IN: CVPR.
, 2008
"... The aim of this paper is to address recognition of natural human actions in diverse and realistic video settings. This challenging but important subject has mostly been ignored in the past due to several problems one of which is the lack of realistic and annotated video datasets. Our first contribut ..."

-of-the-art results on the standard KTH action dataset by achieving 91.8 % accuracy. Given the inherent problem of noisy labels in automatic annotation, we particularly investigate and show high tolerance of our method to annotation errors in the training set. We finally apply the method to learning and classifying
An Efficient Solution to the Five-Point Relative Pose Problem
, 2004
"... An efficient algorithmic solution to the classical five-point relative pose problem is presented. The problem is to find the possible solutions for relative camera pose between two calibrated views given five corresponding points. The algorithm consists of computing the coefficients of a tenth degre ..."

degree polynomial in closed form and subsequently finding its roots. It is the first algorithm well suited for numerical implementation that also corresponds to the inherent complexity of the problem. We investigate the numerical precision of the algorithm. We also study its performance under noise
Visual categorization with bags of keypoints
- In Workshop on Statistical Learning in Computer Vision, ECCV
, 2004
"... Abstract. We present a novel method for generic visual categorization: the problem of identifying the object content of natural images while generalizing across variations inherent to the object class. This bag of keypoints method is based on vector quantization of affine invariant descriptors of im ..."

Generation and Synchronous Tree-Adjoining Grammars
, 1990
"... Tree-adjoining grammars (TAG) have been proposed as a formalism for generation based on the intuition that the extended domain of syntactic locality that TAGs provide should aid in localizing semantic dependencies as well, in turn serving as an aid to generation from semantic representations. We dem ..."

demonstrate that this intuition can be made concrete by using the formalism of synchronous tree-adjoining grammars. The use of synchronous TAGs for generation provides solutions to several problems with previous approaches to TAG generation. Furthermore, the semantic monotonicity requirement previously
Data Security
, 1979
"... The rising abuse of computers and increasing threat to personal privacy through data banks have stimulated much interest m the techmcal safeguards for data. There are four kinds of safeguards, each related to but distract from the others. Access controls regulate which users may enter the system and ..."

GPS-Less Low Cost Outdoor Localization for Very Small Devices.
- IEEE Personal Communications Magazine,
, 2000
"... Abstract-Instrumenting the physical world through large networks of wireless sensor nodes, particularly for applications like environmental monitoring of water and soil, requires that these nodes be very small, light, untethered and unobtrusive. The problem of localization, i.e., determining where ..."

Estimation of probabilities from sparse data for the language model component of a speech recognizer
- IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing
, 1987
"... Abstract-The description of a novel type of rn-gram language model is given. The model offers, via a nonlinear recursive procedure, a com-putation and space efficient solution to the problem of estimating prob-abilities from sparse data. This solution compares favorably to other proposed methods. Wh ..."

. While the method has been developed for and suc-cessfully implemented in the IBM Real Time Speech Recognizers, its generality makes it applicable in other areas where the problem of es-timating probabilities from sparse data arises. Sparseness of data is an inherent property of any real text
The dynamic behavior of a data dissemination protocol for network programming at scale
- In Proceedings of the Second International Conferences on Embedded Network Sensor Systems (SenSys
"... To support network programming, we present Deluge, a reliable data dissemination protocol for propagating large data objects from one or more source nodes to many other nodes over a multihop, wireless sensor network. Deluge builds from prior work in density-aware, epidemic maintenance protocols. Usi ..."

Social Trust as a solution to address sparsity-inherent problems of Recommender systems
"... Trust has been explored by many researchers in the past as a successful solution for assisting recommender systems. Even though the approach of using a web-of-trust scheme for assisting the recommendation production is well adopted, issues like the sparsity problem have not been explored adequately ..."

Developmental follow-up: Inherent problems and a conceptual model

The rates of pre-dictability are better in clinical populations consisting of significantly damaged infants, and predictions are more accurate for-groups than for in ..."
