RASL: Robust Alignment by Sparse and Low-rank Decomposition for Linearly Correlated Images

by Yigang Peng, Arvind Ganesh, John Wright, Wenli Xu, Yi Ma , 2010
"... This paper studies the problem of simultaneously aligning a batch of linearly correlated images despite gross corruption (such as occlusion). Our method seeks an optimal set of image domain transformations such that the matrix of transformed images can be decomposed as the sum of a sparse matrix of ..."

Lambertian Reflectance and Linear Subspaces

by Ronen Basri, David Jacobs , 2000
"... We prove that the set of all reflectance functions (the mapping from surface normals to intensities) produced by Lambertian objects under distant, isotropic lighting lies close to a 9D linear subspace. This implies that, in general, the set of images of a convex Lambertian object obtained under a wi ..."

Linear spatial pyramid matching using sparse coding for image classification

by Jianchao Yang, Kai Yu, Yihong Gong, Thomas Huang - in IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition(CVPR , 2009
"... Recently SVMs using spatial pyramid matching (SPM) kernel have been highly successful in image classification. Despite its popularity, these nonlinear SVMs have a complexity O(n 2 ∼ n 3) in training and O(n) in testing, where n is the training size, implying that it is nontrivial to scaleup the algo ..."

the algorithms to handle more than thousands of training images. In this paper we develop an extension of the SPM method, by generalizing vector quantization to sparse coding followed by multi-scale spatial max pooling, and propose a linear SPM kernel based on SIFT sparse codes. This new approach remarkably

Image denoising using a scale mixture of Gaussians in the wavelet domain

by Javier Portilla, Vasily Strela, Martin J. Wainwright, Eero P. Simoncelli - IEEE TRANS IMAGE PROCESSING , 2003
"... We describe a method for removing noise from digital images, based on a statistical model of the coefficients of an overcomplete multiscale oriented basis. Neighborhoods of coefficients at adjacent positions and scales are modeled as the product of two independent random variables: a Gaussian vecto ..."

coefficient reduces to a weighted average of the local linear estimates over all possible values of the hidden multiplier variable. We demonstrate through simulations with images contaminated by additive white Gaussian noise that the performance of this method substantially surpasses that of previously

Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models”.

by Kung-Yee Liang , Scott L Zeger - Biometrika, , 1986
"... SUMMARY This paper proposes an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data. We introduce a class of estimating equations that give consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence. The estimating ..."

Using Discriminant Eigenfeatures for Image Retrieval

by Daniel L. Swets, John Weng , 1996
"... This paper describes the automatic selection of features from an image training set using the theories of multi-dimensional linear discriminant analysis and the associated optimal linear projection. We demonstrate the effectiveness of these Most Discriminating Features for view-based class retrieval ..."

Eigenfaces vs. Fisherfaces: Recognition Using Class Specific Linear Projection

by Peter N. Belhumeur, João P. Hespanha, David J. Kriegman , 1997
"... We develop a face recognition algorithm which is insensitive to gross variation in lighting direction and facial expression. Taking a pattern classification approach, we consider each pixel in an image as a coordinate in a high-dimensional space. We take advantage of the observation that the images ..."

of a particular face, under varying illumination but fixed pose, lie in a 3-D linear subspace of the high dimensional image space -- if the face is a Lambertian surface without shadowing. However, since faces are not truly Lambertian surfaces and do indeed produce self-shadowing, images will deviate

Efficient graph-based image segmentation.

by Pedro F Felzenszwalb , Daniel P Huttenlocher - International Journal of Computer Vision, , 2004
"... Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of segmenting an image into regions. We define a predicate for measuring the evidence for a boundary between two regions using a graph-based representation of the image. We then develop an efficient segmentation algorithm based on this predicate, and show ..."

runs in time nearly linear in the number of graph edges and is also fast in practice. An important characteristic of the method is its ability to preserve detail in low-variability image regions while ignoring detail in high-variability regions.

Dynamic Conditional Correlation: A simple class of multivariate Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity Models.

by Robert Engle - Journal of Business & Economic Statistics , 2002
"... Abstract Time varying correlations are often estimated with Multivariate Garch models that are linear in squares and cross products of the data. A new class of multivariate models called dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models is proposed. These have the flexibility of univariate GARCH models ..."

The Laplacian Pyramid as a Compact Image Code

by Peter J. Burt , Edward H. Adelson , 1983
"... We describe a technique for image encoding in which local operators of many scales but identical shape serve as the basis functions. The representation differs from established techniques in that the code elements are localized in spatial frequency as well as in space. Pixel-to-pixel correlations a ..."
