  • A study of methods for fine-grained object classification of arthropod specimens

    Creator:
    Lin, Junyuan
    Abstract:
    Object categorization is one of the fundamental topics in computer vision research. Most current work in object categorization aims to discriminate among generic object classes with gross differences. However, many applications require much finer distinctions. This thesis focuses on the design, evaluation and analysis of learning algorithms for fine- grained...

    Fine-grained Object Classification of Arthropod Specimens Abstract approved: Thomas G. Dietterich

  • Object detection in biological images using a search-based framework

    Creator:
    Lam, Michael
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses a basic problem in computer vision, that of semantic labeling of images. Our work is aimed at object detection in biological images for evolutionary biology research. In particular, our goal is to detect nematocysts in Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images. This biological domain presents challenges for existing...

  • Region based image matching for 3D object recognition

    Creator:
    Liu, Tian
    Abstract:
    3D object recognition is a very difficult and important problem in computer vision, arising in a wide range of applications. Typically in 3D object recognition, interest points are extracted from images and then matched. A shortcoming of this approach is that points only carry local visual information. Therefore, there could...

  • Offensive Direction Inference in Real-World Football Video

    Creator:
    Lu, Qingkai
    Abstract:
    Automatic analysis of American football videos can help teams develop strategies and extract patterns with less human effort. In this work, we focus on the problem of automatically determining which team is on offense/defense, which is an important subproblem for higher-level analysis. While seemingly mundane, this problem is quite challenging...

  • Adaptive Wing Loss for Robust Face Alignment via Heatmap Regression

    Creator:
    Wang, Xinyao
    Abstract:
    Heatmap regression has became one of the mainstream approaches to localize facial landmarks. As Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) are becoming popular in solving computer vision tasks, extensive research has been done on these architectures. However, the loss function for heatmap regression is rarely studied. In...

  • Interactive player tracking for videos in American football

    Creator:
    Bawaskar, Amit
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an interactive software tool for tracking a moving object in a video. In particular, we focus on the problem of tracking a player in American football videos. Object tracking is one of the fundamental problems in computer vision. It is one of the most important components in...
