  text: 'We study the task of interactive semantic labeling of a segmentation hierarchy.
    To this end we propose a framework interleaving two components: an automatic labeling
    step, based on a Conditional Random Field whose dependencies are defined by the
    inclusion tree of the segmentation hierarchy, and an interaction step that integrates
    incremental input from a human user. Evaluated on two distinct datasets, the proposed
    interactive approach efficiently integrates human interventions and illustrates
    the advantages of structured prediction in an interactive framework. '

  text: We propose a mid-level statistical model for image segmentation that composes
    multiple figure-ground hypotheses (FG) obtained by applying constraints at different
    locations and scales, into larger interpretations (tilings) of the entire image.
    Inference is cast as optimization over sets of maximal cliques sampled from a
    graph connecting all non-overlapping figure-ground segment hypotheses. Potential
    functions over cliques combine unary, Gestalt-based figure qualities, and pairwise
    compatibilities among spatially neighboring segments, constrained by T-junctions
    and the boundary interface statistics of real scenes. Learning the model parameters
    is based on maximum likelihood, alternating between sampling image tilings and
    optimizing their potential function parameters. State of the art results are reported
    on the Berkeley and Stanford segmentation datasets, as well as VOC2009, where
    a 28% improvement was achieved.

  text: We present a joint image segmentation and labeling model (JSL) which, given
    a bag of figure-ground segment hypotheses extracted at multiple image locations
    and scales, constructs a joint probability distribution over both the compatible
    image interpretations (tilings or image segmentations) composed from those segments,
    and over their labeling into categories. The process of drawing samples from the
    joint distribution can be interpreted as first sampling tilings, modeled as maximal
    cliques, from a graph connecting spatially non-overlapping segments in the bag
    [1], followed by sampling labels for those segments, conditioned on the choice
    of a particular tiling. We learn the segmentation and labeling parameters jointly,
    based on Maximum Likelihood with a novel Incremental Saddle Point estimation procedure.
    The partition function over tilings and labelings is increasingly more accurately
    approximated by including incorrect configurations that a not-yet-competent model
    rates probable during learning. We show that the proposed methodologymatches the
    current state of the art in the Stanford dataset [2], as well as in VOC2010, where
    41.7% accuracy on the test set is achieved.

  text: This paper presents a method to create a model of an articulated object using
    the planar motion in an initialization video. The model consists of rigid parts
    connected by points of articulation. The rigid parts are described by the positions
    of salient feature-points tracked throughout the video. Following a filtering
    step that identifies points that belong to different objects, rigid parts are
    found by a grouping process in a graph pyramid. Valid articulation points are
    selected by verifying multiple hypotheses for each pair of parts.

  text: In this paper, we establish a correspondence between the incremental algorithm
    for computing AT-models [8,9] and the one for computing persistent homology [6,14,15].
    We also present a decremental algorithm for computing AT-models that allows to
    extend the persistence computation to a wider setting. Finally, we show how to
    combine incremental and decremental techniques for persistent homology computation.
