Category-Independent Object-Level Saliency Detection
Yangqing Jia,Mei Han +1 more
TL;DR: This paper obtains saliency maps that assign high scores for the whole salient object, and achieves state-of-the-art performance on benchmark datasets covering various foreground statistics.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Grounding spatial relations for human-robot interaction
Sergio Guadarrama,Lorenzo Riano,Dave Golland,Daniel Gouhring,Yangqing Jia,Dan Klein,Pieter Abbeel,Trevor Darrell +7 more
TL;DR: A system for human-robot interaction that learns both models for spatial prepositions and for object recognition, and grounds the meaning of an input sentence in terms of visual percepts coming from the robot's sensors to send an appropriate command to the PR2 or respond to spatial queries.
Proceedings Article
Deep Convolutional Ranking for Multilabel Image Annotation
TL;DR: It is shown that a significant performance gain could be obtained by combining convolutional architectures with approximate top-$k$ ranking objectives, as thye naturally fit the multilabel tagging problem.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Normalized tree partitioning for image segmentation
TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel graph based clustering approach with satisfactory clustering performance and low computational cost, called normalized tree partitioning (NTP), in which a fast combinatorial algorithm is designed for exact bipartitioning.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Finding image exemplars using fast sparse affinity propagation
TL;DR: A novel approach to organize image search results obtained from state-of-the-art image search engines by adopting the idea of affinity propagation and design a fast sparse affinity propagation algorithm to find exemplars that best represent the imagesearch results.
