Titre : Discovering and Aligning Discriminative Mid-Level Features for Image Classification
Résumé : First, I will present an overview of my work on image representations in various contexts.
Then, the focus will be on mid-level image representation for recognition purposes.
Specifically, a system for distinctive mid-level feature learning will be presented.
This method aims at (i) modeling categories as a set of distinctive parts that are discovered automatically,
(ii) aligning the parts across images while learning their visual model,
and, finally (iii) encoding images as sets of part descriptors.
