"Topics in Object Recognition in Images and Video"
Abstract: This talk will include a review of some of our current activities in the general area of object recognition and scene understanding. Recent topics of interest include constructing object models from image data in a semi-supervised manner, recognition by matching parts by using a new spectral technique, and exploiting the temporal aspects for recognition in videos. If time allows, several applications will be shown, in particular in the area of mobile robots, and in 3-D recognition.
Biography: Martial Hebert is Professor at the Robotics
Institute, Carnegie Mellon University. His current research interests
include object recognition in images, video, and range data, scene understanding
using context representations, and model construction from images and
3-D data. His group has explored applications in the areas of autonomous
mobile robots, both in indoor and in unstructured, outdoor environments,
automatic model building for 3D content generation, and video monitoring.
