TLDR
This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.Abstract:
This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene. The features are invariant to image scale and rotation, and are shown to provide robust matching across a substantial range of affine distortion, change in 3D viewpoint, addition of noise, and change in illumination. The features are highly distinctive, in the sense that a single feature can be correctly matched with high probability against a large database of features from many images. This paper also describes an approach to using these features for object recognition. The recognition proceeds by matching individual features to a database of features from known objects using a fast nearest-neighbor algorithm, followed by a Hough transform to identify clusters belonging to a single object, and finally performing verification through least-squares solution for consistent pose parameters. This approach to recognition can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.read more

Diverse Sequential Subset Selection for Supervised Video Summarization
TL;DR: This work proposes the sequential determinantal point process (seqDPP), a probabilistic model for diverse sequential subset selection, which heeds the inherent sequential structures in video data, thus overcoming the deficiency of the standard DPP.

Understanding egocentric activities
TL;DR: This work presents a method to analyze daily activities using video from an egocentric camera, and shows that joint modeling of activities, actions, and objects leads to superior performance in comparison to the case where they are considered independently.

Beyond Sharing Weights for Deep Domain Adaptation
TL;DR: This work introduces a two-stream architecture, where one operates in the source domain and the other in the target domain, and demonstrates that this both yields higher accuracy than state-of-the-art methods on several object recognition and detection tasks and consistently outperforms networks with shared weights in both supervised and unsupervised settings.

TL;DR: The problem the authors are addressing in Alvey Project MMI149 is that of using computer vision to understand the unconstrained 3D world, in which the viewed scenes will in general contain too wide a diversity of objects for topdown recognition techniques to work.
