To facilitate human-robot interactions, human gender information is very important. Motivated by the success of manifold learning for visual recognition, we present a novel clustering-based discriminative locality alignment (CDLA) algorithm to discover the low-dimensional intrinsic submanifold from the embedding high-dimensional ambient space for improving the face gender recognition performance. In particular, CDLA exploits the global geometry through k-means clustering, extracts the discriminative information through margin maximization and explores the local geometry through intra cluster sample concentration. These three properties uniquely characterize CDLA for face gender recognition. The experimental results obtained from the FERET data sets suggest the superiority of the proposed method in terms of recognition speed and accuracy by comparing with several representative methods.

Video stylization transfers a source video into an artistic version while maintaining temporal coherence between adjacent frames. In this paper, we formulate the unsupervised example-based video stylization with Markov random field model. In our algorithm, we implement an improved optical flow algorithm to maintain temporal coherence while improve the accuracy of estimation along motion boundaries. We also extend our algorithm to the application of video personalization, in which human faces keep clear and distinguishable. A series of techniques are fused in video personalization, including face detection and alignment, motion flow, skin detection, and illumination blending. Given a source video and a style template image, our algorithm produces the stylized and/or personalized video(s) automatically. Experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm performs excellently in both video stylization and personalization. Copyright 2011 ACM.

This paper proposes a novel approach to single image super-resolution. First, an image up-sampling scheme is proposed which takes the advantages of both bilateral filtering and mean shift image segmentation. Then we use a shock filter to enhance strong edges in the initial up-sampling result and obtain an intermediate high-resolution image. Finally, we enforce a reconstruction constraint on the high-resolution image so that fine details can be inferred by back projection. Since strong edges in the intermediate result are enhanced, ringing artifacts can be suppressed in the back projection step. We compare our algorithm with several state-of-the-art image super-resolution algorithms. Qualitative and quantitative experimental results demonstrate that our approach performs the best.

This paper presents a system that can automatically segment objects in large scale 3D point clouds obtained from urban ranging images. The system consists of three steps: The first one involves a ground detection process that can detect relatively complex terrain and separate it from other objects. The second step superpixelizes the remaining objects to speed up the segmentation process. In the final step, a manifold embedded mode seeking method is adopted to segment the point clouds. Even though the segmentation of urban objects is a challenging problem in terms of accuracy and problem scale, our system can efficiently generate very good segmentation results. The proposed manifold learning effectively improves the segmentation performance due to the fact that continuous artificial objects often have manifold-like structures. Copyright 2011 ACM.

Humans are capable of describing objects using attributes, such as "the object looks circular and is man-made". Motivated by these high-level descriptions, we build a user-friendly 3D object retrieval system, where the user can browse the database and search for targeted objects using semantic attributes. The main advantage of our system is that it does not require the user to find or sketch a 3D object as the query for 3D object retrieval. Besides, to the best of our knowledge, our system has obtained the best retrieval performance on three popular benchmarks. Copyright 2011 ACM.
